Yes here. The cracks are not possible to remove however it has softened a lot. Great for a project as this is a box bag I can use with a lot more courage without care of scratches and damages. It's also almost rain-proof now. Lol

[emoji173]️ Love your growing Box collection!

A question for your Toundra. Remember you have one too :) What color inside? Just discover the lining came with Gris T in chèvre. Same for the clochette .

Good memory. The inside of my Toundra is also Toundra in chèvre. It looks lighter than Toundra exterior in box.
Can you show me a pic of your Toundra with Gris T? Sounds so lovely.

Let's see if mine is different. The other day I carried to H & SA said it's possibly Gris T. My receipt didn't list about bicolor but just toundra. I was new back then & didn't pay attention to these small details before. [emoji28]

Thank you! This was my very first - walk-in purchase from FSH 4 years ago. There is definitely no horseshoe stamp. Until recently I placed the SO & understand more about bicolor options & later I brought in this Kelly to verify with SA. This Kelly also comes with two pockets (inside) on the front panel. Is this usual configuration? Or just 1 big pocket like B?

Maybe it's just happened they had some extra Toundra Box leather left behind? As I research, I think Toundra was offered a few years prior than an O stamp?!?!

I wish they offer box for SO. I feel so lucky even after all these years. The very special one to keep forever!

Ceci this is a keeper. Lack of horseshoe doesn't reduce how unique this is. Toundra is not offered anymore nor is box. May I ask for a full picture of your beautiful Kelly please?

And yes two front pockets inside are normal.

Thanks Jadeite [emoji4] Yes. I'm glad I was brave to ask the question when I visited FSH the very first time! I only asked for the most classic Box leather in sellier but nothing else. Now I treasure even more! The color turned after some years. I don't carry often but I do carry whenever I feel like it.

This a photo from the most recent.

So lovely keren16 !

How are your handles on the plume? Do you ever tie twillies or do you condition/treat them to keep them clean?

Thank you!
I recently bought this bag & it is in very good condition, including the handles.
I have Twillies and will experiment with them as I use the bag. I like the protection they offer to the handles in addition to the look.

Lovely rouge h family you've got there.:hbeat: The newer rouge h in box leather has more brown than red. I would be over the moon if I found something similar to your rouge h box.:girlwhack:

Thank you. The Plume was recently bought from a reseller and in great condition so the credit goes to her! I hope I maintain it as well as she did.
To me some of the older leathers are in a league of their own & can never be replaced. I feel fortunate to have them.
