Archipelago's Elise is patent leather, her Stam is not.

In Spring 2006, Stams were made in patent/goat leather for Blush, Chalk, and Cola.

I believe her Stam is from Spring 2006.
I noticed some differences in Fall 2006 Stams -- the 1st batch had some sheen to them, the 2nd batch was more matte.

Actually, there were patent stams -- chalk, blush, and cola. I believe those were Resort '06, but I could be wrong.

The same colored Stam varies from one delivery to another. Certain black Stams have some sheen to them, others are totally matte; I prefer the shinier version. I also noticed differences in Cashew as well (some are darker than others).

which stam do you think that is patent?the upper one or the lower one??

^ Both of the black Stams you posted are not patent, only Elise (the bag with the pocket in the front) is. There were 3 colors for Patent Stams in Spring 2006: Chalk (white), Blush (neutral pink), and Cola (dark chocolate).

if the stam i am ordering looks like the first pic,i will be quite happy with it.
i am worrying if it is darker than i thought...

I think the one you ordered will be the matte version, not shiny as the first photo. Still very pretty! If you didn't use the code, call NAP and ask if they can apply it.
