Here is an email from Rose about Choco Crash vs. Choco Glossy Pebble leathers
Now for the chocolate colours. The chocolate crash is a nice twist on the usual chocolate
shade. It is dressy with its crash leather characteristics and its slight metallic sheen. Truly a
stunning leather and colour. A bit more of a true chocolate shade compared with the matte and
glossy chocolates which have a slight reddish undertone. This is my favourite BE chocolate
colour.
Glossy chocolate is silky, slightly pebbled, with a subtle gloss. It is more of a chameleon like
leather (much as dark grey is) as it is a rich milk chocolate in certain lights and slightly more
mahogany in others. It is the type of leather which looks and feels extremely pricey. Elegant
and classic but unique with its glossy finish. This is my favourite BE leather.
Both are durable and low maintenance and both are unique. This is a very difficult choice but
as I study both leathers before me, I must say that it might depend on if you prefer a sexy
leather like crash or an elegant leather like glossy. Colour wise, they are different. Do you
prefer a warmer, slightly reddish brown or a slightly darker, slightly metallic brown? Since you
do own a matte leather and a crash leather, you could go with either.
Perhaps consider if you are in search of an elegant leather that is lovely to touch. If so, the
glossy chocolate may be just the ticket. If you would like a little more pop then you may go the
way of chocolate crash. It is very difficult for me to choose one over the other as they are so
different and I adore both. I will say that I would select the glossy chocolate if this were to be
my only purchase of the season. Only because it is a bit more timeless. The colour works
beautifully with the glossy leather.
Please let me know if I may be of further assistance. I am delighted to aid you in selecting the
perfect handbag!
