Wow thank you! This sounds like it would be pretty gorgeous.

 

[luxemommy]

Are there any photos of it anywhere? Sounds like a gorgeous bag and would love to see it!

This may be the color of the bag (but creamier- since the color is cream), please don't quote me, photo is fellow tpf'er Mischka's.
I will email Amy tomorrow, maybe she has a photo.

Nice! I'm thinking that RM made these from the double cream leather? Taking wild guesses here.

^^^^ hmm, you might be on to something

I got this email too! I wonder if the leather is more structured, or like the leather that falls into a puddle! Its so hard to purchase sight unseen......

I agree with p3bbz - since the coloring is called 'cream' - it was probably cut from the 'double cream' leather. I'd say you're best bet on finding out about the texture is to ask anyone who has a double cream bag.

The LB touch and feel option for a double cream/cream patent MAB lists it as:
Texture gradient: Smooth / Finish gradient: Polished / Structure gradient: Structured

She doesn't mention hardware style (ie old or new), or whether it has tassles or not. Gotta have me those tassles!

 

[stillsearching]

I asked Amy all those questions...

is the leather Double Cream?
will it have old hardware and tassels?
is the basket-weave the same style as the original?

I did a whole thread on the leather of the Double Cream a while ago when I got my Nikki. I don't feel its structured, but that is my opinion.

I pretty much need photos of this bag if I am going to order it. I love how crisp the white with brown is and I don't know if the cream will give that same effect/look. If I hear from Amy I will post here.

I think this sounds promising!

Mine has pebbled leather and I was really hoping to get one with glazed leather.:shame:

 

[Daydrmer]

In RMs earlier collections there was a Cream MA so it could be that leather.

 

[mischka]

I saw these pictures up on ebay of a Cream MAM and a Cream & Brown Steady. These might help

 

[mingtze]

There is Double Cream and Cream. Double Cream is pebbled but Cream is not.

I wonder if the leather is pebbled...

Hmmm...sounds like a gorgeous combo!!! Would love to see it irl!!!
