Thanks for the explanation and I'm looking forward to more shots of her. You might find that you will have a use for the more shallow pockets as you are moving into her. I often wish my bags had a small lil outside pocket for handy access to necessities (tissues, lip balm - lol anything I feel I need while driving

Your bag with the solid color leather is more appealing to me than those. Those are more "funky," and dated. (By funky I mean: offbeat, unconventional.) Too much going on. The patterns there are pulling attention away from the amazingness of THREE kisslocks. Yours is timeless. Elegant. And so beautiful.

There was a solid color 2 kisslock bag that was released in Asia recently. I don't think it was available in the US. I don't know why; everyone who saw it wanted one.

I finally dunked what I thought was my black Three Frame Shoulder Tote from 1969 (thanks @whateve for the info) & it turned out to be a very dark blue! Im wondering if it might be the shade “royal blue” from a Cashin colour swatch I found on Google images…

The hardware faded into an antique nickel & I didn’t polish it because 1) I think the character suits the bag & 2) my Coach tooled tea rose bag charm matches perfectly with the imperfect nickel. The Mexican striped lining didn’t bleed in the dunk (thank you @katev for putting my mind at ease).

I LOVE this bag, I’ll never part with it!

Thanks! Im very grateful to have such a rare gem in my collection

Since I never paid much attention to the cheapo bags I used to carry, it always surprises me how recuperative good leather really is, as is shown here time and time again. Also the tea rose is stunning. Is there a place where these are sold ?

I'm so sorry to have missed this question, @Tilis. The beautiful tea rose was made by our very own extremely talented @LunaSilver. I believe she's currently on a hiatus from leatherworking... but we are all hoping she'll get back to it! Her tea roses are simply stunning!!!

(Please don't hate me. I believe I have 12 or 13 of them! )

Thanks LZ, I still haven’t make new ones yet. Your bags are so beautiful, and well organized.

They are stunning !!!! And I wont hate you, I'm glad you have them to show off to us The red and green especially, are such perfect compliments to the bags. Perhaps once LunaSilver takes herself off hiatus, I will be able to buy one as well.

Oh my. Now I kinda wish this one had "gotten lost in the mail", if you know what I mean, ha ha! This looks STUNNING!! Great job!

After a long bag ban and a rehab hiatus, I've acquired a purple (ink?) Tribeca tote that needs a spa day. I lost my horse hair shoe brush, my Leather CPR has expired, and I can't find my rehab towels and water proof crib liner that I use to protect my table from wet bags. I feel like I'm starting over. I also have a burgundy OG Rambler that has been waiting for the spa for maybe a year now. This whole entire thread is such an inspiration and motivation to get a move on though! You guys are amazing. I'm so jealous of your beautiful bags!

I don't hate you, I am just seriously annoyed with myself that I snoozed on the opportunity. You have such a lovely, curated collection.

I have been on a bit of a buying break (and rehabbing break) too. Part of it happened organically after being mesmerized with a beautiful embossed red satchel, #7011 and my golden toned mystery Shopping Bag style I got in February. I have serious Courier envy, but have a hard time paying over $200 for a bag, let alone one I cannot return. The Courier collections here are killing me dead they are so stunning. One thought is that if I did find a Courier, $200-ish, and I wasn't thrilled, I could resell it and recoup the bucks.

If the CPR has been stored in your home, as in climate controlled and doesn't smell weird, I would be inclined to use it. But that's me.

I did purchase this cutie last month and was pleasantly surprised that seller accepted half their asking price. I need to see if the tab is salvageable ...

I want a regular courier so bad but the prices are outrageous! I can’t believe I passed on a few that were under $100 in the past…
