Has anyone seen the 22p gold in person? How do you like the gold and do you think the coating is durable?

I am considering the card case but can’t see the item in person.

Any feedback would be welcome. TIA!

Hi! I have this gold in the woc. To me, the color is very versatile.. can work as a neutral. It’s definitely hard to capture the true color coz it varies significantly depending on lighting. I love it under natural lighting.. it’s not a super sparkly gold like the 21P. I mean, don’t get me wrong.. the very popular 21P was gorgeous but it was a little too sparkly for my liking. This gold is more subdued.. seems like it has a bonzey undertone.. not sure if I’m describing it right lol

Under fluorescent lighting, it looks like cleopatra gold.. not my fave.

I’ve attached a pic for reference. Indoor with natural lighting. Hope this helps :) BD8815E1-D9E0-4E9B-8577-A25BAC5B12C2.jpeg

Oh btw, can’t tell if the material/coating is durable… Honestly to me, the lambskin feels a little delicate but honestly I’m not worried about it. My first Chanel was lambskin and it’s held up pretty well after more than 12 yrs :)

Thank you so much for the detailed review!
Would you say your photo for the WOC is very close to how it looks in real life?

Have you taken this WOC out? Curious how it has responded with normal use.
 
OMG!!! it's BEAUTIFUL!!!

So, it's definitely not the same brick red as the 22P coco handles ? And it's SHINY?!!?!? Some of the photos make it look matte and flat..

EDIT: Sorry! I got so excited by your posts I didn't read ALL the related posts - It's not the same red as the CCH (phew!).

I hope this batch of red caviar used on the small cf is all shiny and puffy though. The pic I saw from a reseller def looks matte, with flatter quilts..

Sparkle finally arrived! I call her that because she shines bright like a diamond and THEE perfect shade of red I have been dreaming of! Chanel can keep my coins because Sparkle is magic!
Mine arrived too and so far I love it! :love: It’s a lipstick red indeed! View attachment 5329168
Left lipstick: Hermes Rouge Casaque
Right lipstick: Hermes Rouge Bleu
I don’t see any orange/brown undertones so far but it’s a cloudy day today.

Finally decided to purchase my first Chanel, so I went to the Honolulu boutique about 2 weeks ago and found this black caviar wallet on chain with cc logo on the chain and light gold hardware. Was going in for a classic mini flap but of course those are hard to come by....but I found this and totally fell in love with it. I think this WOC is better than the classic WOC since this batch of leather feels a lot more sturdier. Features black interior lining, plastic zipper, and shorter chain length (perfect for me since I'm petite).
Unfortunately the first day I used it, I noticed a loose stitching on the back smile pocket, so I sent in for a complimentary stitching repair after using it once. Now...time to wait for 4 to 6 weeks
Your WOC is beautiful! How did you like the cc chain? I saw a light pink one, but I couldn’t decide how the cc part would feel or lay when wearing.

Yw :smile: I know how difficult it is to buy something without seeing it first! The photo I posted is definitely how it looks IRL when indoor with natural lighting. The color changes depending on lighting.. like I said, when under the fluorescent light, it looks like a cleopatra gold lol a super bright yellow gold (and I’m not really a fan of that color!) so depending on how and when you’re gonna use it … the color might not be the same as the one I posted. Literally, it can be 10 different shades of gold depending on the lighting!

I have used it to do a grocery pick up lol which was probably just 20-30 mins tops! So I cant really comment on durability…

However, I have noticed that there was a tiny dent already on the back and unlike most lambskin, when you gently rub it, it disappears… this one didnt. So I dont know.. maybe this coating is less durable than regular lambskin. Just my 2 cents. Hth. Good luck deciding :smile:
 
Hi everyone, I recently made an account here as my girlfriend was extremely in love with the ' Mini Flap Bag with Top Handle ' in light pink... I know it's an extremely popular product I believe. Considering that this is a popular seasonal product, my chances of getting this should be close to none right? I reside in Toronto if that helps!
 
I was holding my breathe when I was opening up the dust bag. I literally screamed when I saw the true red color and ran around my living room! The I took her out of the dust bag and saw the intense shine and nearly fainted hahahaha My friend said she was feeling more anxious than me about the bag hahahahah She was also very relieved to hear it was everything I wanted! We are going to have a meet up on Saturday and she is bringing her Rouge Casaque birkin so we can compare and take pics!

Very happy and so glad to be twinning with you!!! :hugs:
Im curious to see the red cf next to Rouge casaque too please share pics when you guys got together :nuts:
