Comparison of wine shades: raspberry, bordeaux & tinted wine

[citychris]

I thought I'd share the following info. from Ignacio re: comparisons among raspberry, bordeaux, and tinted wine leathers:

Structure/Texture:
The bordeaux and raspberry leathers are structured, while the tinted wine is soft. The tinted wine is also glossier than the bordeaux and the raspberry.

Color:
There's also a difference in color, with the tinted wine and the raspberry having more red in them than the bordeaux, and the bordeaux having more purple. The raspberry has a few lighter spots that could be considered a stronger pink factor, though they are not pink per se.

The bordeaux is......well, purple!!!! Wow! Love it!

 

[Euridice]

but Ignes photos are notorious....is it really THAT purple?? I'm suddenly craving grape juice!

 

[elizat]

You know, Euridice, you are right. In fact, that was the photo that Maria labeled as Aubergine w/ me, if I remember right.

I love the raspberry color! Especially with the brushed gold hardware. Did Ignes ever get the gun metal hardware?

 

[Euridice]

I do LOVE that bordeaux.....yikes, I'm getting tempted now, too!

I think I remember for the previous threads: bordeaux=aubergine

Still no traces of gunmetal harware

 

[Euridice]

oh man, I thought I read it was available now! gunmetal that is.

 

[newbaglover]

Oh, where has you read this? I want this harware SO much! I would be deligthed if it is available now! ( Still have in my mind the tinted blue with gunmetal HW)

oh man, I thought I read it was available now! gunmetal that is.

 

[Euridice]

No Cute, did you say gunmetal is available?? Otherwise, I might have dreamt that.

I asked Ignacio about gunmetal the other day and he said that it is currently not available. He said that it has been delayed for a few months.

 

[newbaglover]

oh! It was too good to be true...

 

[No Cute]

Ya, I said it. I thought it was then it wasn't...but it never was, right? Sorry. I really want(ed) a raspberry Veronica with gunmetal hardware.
