Thanks and be well!
 
Thank you very much!!

ETA - is anthracite considered grey or green? My inability to judge color is starting to scare me, since I'm now reading browns as burgundies as well sometimes.
Anthracite is a grey that can lean heavily to blue or green. Don’t forget lighting can make it really hard to tell what colour you’re looking at!
 
Praying this is my first A tag. Can someone weigh in for me? :heart:

S/S 2005 First Black

Can someone check this listing for me?


I was about to snag this bag but the more I looked at it the more it looked too good to be true.

Hello! Hope it's okay to repost with the correct pics now that I received the bag!

Seller said it was his father’s. The leather feels supple and the colour is faded. First four are seller pics and the rest are mine. Anyone know what the colour name?

Item Name: Balenciaga Twiggy
Site: Mercari Japan
Link: https://jp.mercari.com/item/m49399483457/

p.s i noticed some flaking on the underside of the zipper seam. It seems like hide? Is this common with leather bags and is it due to age? Another kind user dated this as 2005-2009.
thank you so much! :smile:
