i tooootally defer to thithi on this because she rules, and i think i may see the piping.

one last thing for other venetia owners to check? the sides of the flap (on the inside flap pocket) on mine only extend a hair beyond the sides of the pocket itself. the one on hers seems much more rounded but perhaps changes were made to the pocket. i don't, however, think that it's because the pocket has yet to be used on mine, because there's stitching at the top in such a way that the flap can't really extend no matter how much you stuff/use it.

here's to me for confusing things even more, but maybe thithi and bag.lover can talk to that point.

Hi Ladies, I just purchased a caramel Venetia on Ebay. I should have asked this before buying, but I just wanted to check if the Venetia was really made in caramel. I sure hope so. thanks for your help!:smile1:

I'm sorry, but this one is fake. It's one of the better fakes, so I can see how you were fooled. I hope you didn't complete the transaction yet. I would pull out ASAP. Good luck, let us know how it goes!

I see what you're saying, I think it may be the angle again... but if you want to check, ask for another view of the flap dead on, and ask if there is an open pocket behind the flap pocket.

Morningbell, I agree with Thithi. Ebayer kanii_22 (definitely on my Bad Sellers list) sells replicas.

A Caramel Quilted Venetia is also being listed by another replica seller frugalfashion. Guessing that frugalfashion & kanii_22 get their stuffs from the same supplier?
