Me either.....

But as long as it's not faux barenia you're OK!!

 

[guccigal07]

all I know...is its supposed to be the new veau barenia......

its like gulliver leather to swift leather....

I have not the faintest idea, but am very curious now, too!!

fauve translates to fawn....?

In addition to the deer/fawn or wild beast meaning in French, it can also refer to a specific color of reddish-yellow.

Total conjecture here...but...there was a shortage of Barenia is seemed, and there was a discussion a while back that the older Barenia was thicker and newer Barenia pieces were thinner (or maybe just that different Barenia items were of differing thickness?? sorry if I have this wrong). Could it be that they are having trouble getting the old thick Barenia and felt the need to give a new name to the "new" thinner, lighter Barenia? I am making a total guess here...

yeah I think so too.

I think it might be almost the same thing.

is it possible that she is saying "veau" but it comes out sounding like "fauve"? they do sound a lot alike .

nope its def fauve now....and not veau.

my SA basically was like you know gulliver and swift leather...they are basically the same but different names.

that is all I got.

I'm pretty sure there is an item described in the new Le Monde as "Fauve Barenia" from what I saw in that thread.

 

[guccigal07]
