I'm disappointed in the so black boy. Was hoping for caviar. Does anyone know how durable this calf would be?

I have a calf boy from fall act 2-and it's pretty durable. If this so black boy is in the same calf I'd say it's pretty durable. Obviously it's not like caviar, but it's a lot thicker and sturdier than lamb. No scratches and scuffing even with my sharp nails handing it haha. Feel it yourself in person and you'll see what I mean!
 
Agreed! I am having the same situation where I got the white mini from last year’s cruise and fell in love with the edge-stitching, so I was looking forward to a beige Clair mini from this year’s cruise with the same element...but now I think the beige in the picture is way too light and a bit similar to my white mini then... :sad: feels like I lost my excitement all of a sudden...

I was pretty excited about this too. I love the neutral colors as they work best for me and I particularly love silver hardware. So, I will wait and see some more pics of the light beige before deciding. But, even if I pass on this color, there will always be another bag and new colors coming out to look forward to! You might find something from the Spring or Summer releases that is just perfect for you.

Just saw this on Instagram!! The color is still probably too light in this picture for me...wish it would have more like a pink tone....but you’re right! If this beige is not the one I want then I’ll just look forward to the future season/collections!!

Oh, thank you for posting that photo! Well, I'm liking it more! It seems definitely different from my 17C soft white mini, especially with the silver hardware.

I picked up the black caviar rectangle mini with SHW at Takashimaya department store in Japan yesterday. My SA let me know it had arrived just the day before. The calfskin caviar is quite hard and matte, but the pebbles are small and it still appears vibrant in the light. I'll attach some photos for a better idea of the caviar. Side note, Chanel prices in Japan are quite good at the moment and this only ended up being $2,880 USD in total.

Thanks for sharing this! I’m goinh in March so I hope the conversion is still good!! How was the selection? Did you have to reserve it beforehand?
 
Hi
Congrats on your purchase!

Can I ask what is the chain length for this mini? I’m asking because last season’s mini had shorter chains.

And the caviar leather is more matt than glossy?

Do u have any modelling shots to share with us please? Thanks!

I’m waiting to see the drop length as well...

Can anyone measure the drop length of their 18C rectangular mini please? Much appreciated.
