Hi! I just received my small 19 that was shipped to me today from the boutique, and was wanting a goatskin from 20A... however, I just looked at the tag and it says it’s from 20B. Are the 19 bags from 20B lambskin or goatskin? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you :smile:FB6574A7-5EE9-40AC-B4FD-F4202F5F6DF4.jpeg6A0C7CAD-E091-4762-A694-B4F055D7ECEB.jpeg

Since they seem to alternate, I would assume it is lamb for 20B.

That looks like goatskin to me, but definitely would ask for another opinion or two.

thanks! How can you tell the difference between goatskin and lambskin? I have other goatskin items from Chanel and Hermes and there’s a grain to them that I haven’t even seen on the goatskin 19’s....

thanks so much!

The way the quilting folds with the light reflection made me think goatskin. Here are two examples from fashionphile:

From your picture, the puffs look a little tighter, like in the goatskin one. But if it's puffier in real life, I'd say lambskin, especially since the double cc goes "in" more.

I asked my SA - she was told goatskin, but is double checking with her manager. Problem is, boutique closed today because multiple people were shot yesterday right in front of the store :wtf:

Another one of my friends asked her SA today and they were told 20b was going to be “shiny goatskin” ‍:confused1:
Look into your receipt, next to the code. Does it says flapbag AGNEAU?

If you like the look of the bag, I wouldn’t worry about whether it’s lamb or goat. I have the lamb from 20C and I’ve “scratched” it a few times (nails while trying to grab the top handle) and there are 0 scratch marks, it looks brand new still. Not sure if that was your concern about lamb but if it is I wouldn’t worry about it!

I think yours is lambskin. Here’s I got a pic from another thread in forum. Left is lambskin vs. Goatskin on right. Lambskin is shinier while goatskin is more matte and plastiky and sturdy

Sooooo- the confusion continues. My bag definitely looks like lamb. The 1-800 number looked up my tag and says it’s lamb. But. My receipt says “chevre brilliant” ie shiny goat. My SA is double checking with her manager ...
