Oh that's Vachette Grainee Ardenne.

You can find more info abt it in this thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/w...86813.html?highlight=Vachette+Grainee+Ardenne

Queenie, don't you think this looks so much like Blue Brighton in Clemence?

To add on, it's actually a discontinued leather so the person getting it is very fortunate.

It does! I wanted to say this at the Authentic thread but realised it's A stamp so it definitely can't be BB.

thx ladies for the thread. I hope it's not too heavy. I love light bags...

I had a 40 Ardenne Birkin, and it's a lighter leather than Togo or Clemence. In fact it's one of my all time favourite H leathers, and I'm really sad that it's discontinued, b/c I would certainly have bought other bags in this leather.
