Authenticate This L.A.M.B.

^ Some of the bullseye bags were pictured on a few websites that had a blue outer ring on the bullseye, with a red circle around the little lamb. They were early production bags.

Then when the bulk of the Bullseye bags came out - they had a red outer ring with a blue circle around the little lamb.

I have a Bullseye Montego and I use it a lot, I have never had any issues with the paint rubbing off, but I have heard other Bullseye owners did.

Thanks, this helps. I originally only wanted a wallet, but there are so many cute bags too.

I have a handpainted Anuschka that some of the painting has rubbed off, so I don't need another with rubbing off paint.

I wouldn't worry about the paint. Indi3r4 and I have/had one and we never had the paint rub off.

Regarding the opposing bullseye circle colors: I would love to have a Mandeville with the blue outer ring/red inner ring. I think someone on here found one on ebay some time ago. I always liked that combo better than mine, plus it's rare!

Ok- I'm going to chime in: I have a Bullseye Commodore and haven't had any trouble with the print chipping or peeling.

Thats a real one alright crowandiris! It's so cute.

 

[jillian8706]

definitely real and from a great seller!

Hi everyone, please forgive my L.A.M.B. ignorance, but can you tell me if this one is real? I can only seem to find other online pics of the one with black trim so I'm a little lost! Thanks in advance!

This is what I keep finding, rather than the "natural" trim...

 

[heathie02]

It is real, and it has a lamb in the center, some girls can't find any lambs in their hennas so that is a nice one.

sdnoobie: that is a SAMPLE bag and it is QUITE different from the actual henna/natural bags that was sold in retail stores. If you really love the henna print and prefer the "natural" trim, I'd look for the retail version because this sample version does not look nearly as nice, in my opinion.

Here's a patch of what the retail version looks like below. You might notice that the retail version has the contrast outline that gives it that polished look to this gorgeous henna print. In contrast, the sample bag is missing the contrast outline and just looks worn and faded.

/\ That makes so much sense! I think that's why I was having trouble with it...it just didn't look quite right! Thanks so much for your input!

 

[csalt]

Glad I could help a bit! Good luck!

It's been a few weeks since, but it wouldn't hurt to try calling Saks Off 5th @ (408) 848-2671 to see if they have any henna bags left. CeruleanGirl informed us that they had a lot of henna bags, both in the black and natural trims. That photo is definitely LAMB heaven!

/\ Thank you so much! It's been a while since I've seen a particular collection that just jumped out at me and they do still have a few pieces at that store! MUCH APPRECIATED, csalt!!!
