binky said:... maybe this has been answered before but i just missed it--what is the difference between chevre mysore and chevre coromandel?
xquisite said:I am dying to know this too. I'm pretty sure I've settled on chevre but I haven't seen the 2 types side by side to work out the difference. Can anyone help with pics or an explanation?
Greentea said:I agree, Lucy. It may go on hiatus but I'd be shocked if they ever got rid of it for good.
I don't mind so much if Jhansi is discontinued as long as they keep making Coromandel!
HermesAddiction said:They are both very light and durable and the difference is Mysoe is softer than Coromandel. Bags made in Coromandel will have a more structured look.
Hope this explains
They do still make box, 'cause I ordered a box Kelly only two days ago.. My SA showed me the order list for the Autumn bags and there were several in box, but not many colors, mostly black (rigid and souple) and the chocolate I preordered... The low production might also be for the reasons you mention above, but what my SA said is that in these last few years people prefer the "grainy" more souple leathers to the smooth and more rigid ones (at least in my country) and also box isn't very popular because it's delicate...HermesAddiction said:According to my SA, Box calf is not discontinued but the production is low because beautiful skin in perfect condition for Box Calf has been in low supply in the last 2 years.
BTW, the leather part of my Ming Birkin is in Box calf so it's a sign that Hermes is in fact still making Box Calf
