Hello AW experts:
I came upon this Donna bag in a consignment store. It is made of distressed/washed leather. The wash leaves the bag with an almost two-tone finish at places. Everything -- the leather patch tag and the MIC tag looks authentic. But the uneven color leaves me wondering. Does anyone here ever seen such distressed version of a Donna?

The bag is in a local store so I have no web link for it. Wish I took pictures to show here. The base color looks to be washed-out camel, but the "lips" and part of the shoulder straps have more brown in them, giving a two-tone appearance. The lining is in a pale shade of khaki. I've never seen one of its kind and I'm hoping someone here could shed some light on it. I know it might be difficult though without visuals. Thank you in advance for taking the time. You ladies are amazing!

There are PFers with much more knowledge than I, but I doubt they can give you much without photos. :sad: Just as an FYI, I purchased a Donna in washed leather where the suede trim was darker on one side of the bag than the other. I've also seen (mostly on eBay) many different distressed versions of the Donna, but that doesn't reflect on the authenticity of the bag you saw, sorry!

I have a very distressed donna bag produced 2010. I would need to see photos to know.
