I saw someone with a bag yesterday I haven't seen in ages. It was narrow. Hi shine silver metallic with rivets. Had 2 short handles and a long strap. I remember it had also come in a very sparkly metallic purple. Penny maybe?? I can't recall but it was perfect for the holidays. The lady was walking around Rockefeller center with the tree in the background.
Like this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-EUC-K...cb8b018&pid=100011&rk=1&rkt=3&sd=111191506257
It also came in a small size: https://www.amazon.com/Coach-Kristin-Metallic-Crossbody-Boysenberry/dp/B004EKVON4
 
Not exactly "in the wild" but I was surprised to come across another karung snakeskin Coach Parker Exotics Flap Bag 13417 that recently sold for only $170 NWT (retail $898).

The other day we were discussing the care of genuine snakeskin on another thread and I came across this bag while searching for information. I think the seller may have gotten her information from the original post about my bag because she calls the color "blush". I had a hard time finding anything out about this bag and I originally described the color as blush, but it is actually fuchsia with rosegold hardware.

I just wanted to share because it is always fun to come across a rare bag at a great price - too bad I found it too late to tell anyone on TPF to buy it - but I hope that it went to a good home; it really is a special little bag.

More proof that that there are rare beauties and great bargains out there just waiting to be found!

Oh man...what a find! Such a beautiful little gem of a purse. I've got the metallic python version of that bag-which I love, but I'd love to get my paws on this one too.
I don't actively look for my Unicorn/HG bags anymore. Maybe I should start up again...

Wow, the silver python version looks gorgeous! I tried to document information about these bags because it was so hard to find out about them and I couldn't find anything about the python bag. Would you still have the style number and hardware and color codes for it? I would like to try and coax a picture out of the drill-down search program. Thanks!
 
Saw a most STUNNING Rhyder satchel at the market today......python embossed in that wonderful deep navy blue color. I had never seen one IRL before and now I wish I hadn't because I can't get it out of my mind:loveeyes::loveeyes:
