They are excellent for blotting papers too.
Which brand?! This is an excellent idea for the Calvi! More reasons to explain to my DH that you cannot simply have one.
I made my own with plain tissue paper or you can buy from clinique and cut them to fitWhich brand?! This is an excellent idea for the Calvi! More reasons to explain to my DH that you cannot simply have one.

Gorgeous! I have anemone in chevre mysore - this looks like a slightly smoother grain? Anyone seen the two goatskins back to back?
I have one in rose confetti and the other one in anemone, I'll take a picture for you when I get home! I saw one in bamboo as well in the new leather but I got the anemone.
Rose Confetti (verso, brique [?] color inside) in chèvre mysore and anemone in the chèvre chamkila.
I was also shown one in bamboo in chamkila, it was a beautiful green.

Thanks for sharing these - so chamkila is smoother? how does it feel to the touch?
Chamkila is smoother, still has the grain but it’s a subtler grain. Shinier. Hand feel is hard to describe...its smooth to the touch and sturdier than say, evercolor. It feels a lot like the Mysore but a lot smoother. I don’t really feel the grain. I think it’ll hold up well.
I have two of these... a lime (fleuro yellow) one in goatskin and a green one in evercolor (not sure the color name). I use these for my smaller bags- and I love how they fit a good amount of cards, and / or some folded cash, and I love the happy color of the lime.
The evercolor is softer and feels more luxurious and it’s less rigid than the goatskin one. My goatskin one got indented in the middle, possibly from pressing into a zipper? I’m not sure. I don’t mind dings and dents, but just something to keep in mind. I love both of them, and use both of them, I prefer the feel of the evercolor, but I use the goatskin one more because of the color, but it seems like the evercolor would be a bit less sensitive to the grain dents.

I bought this home too. When the SA show this to me together with Barenia Faubourg with ebene and Faubourg with Bleu unit. I stay at the counter over 15 minutes and hesitate to make the wrong decisions. Congratulations for getting all the beauties.Asked my SA for barenia SLGs and brought home this verso calvi
So interesting. I feel like my chevre mysore is more durable than my evercolor. Of my 3x calvi (chevre mysore, barenia, evercolor) the chevre is the one I'm least "concerned" about on a daily basis. At least within mine, the chevre and evercolor feel equally soft, just the evercolor somehow seems (though may not actually be) less durable.
