Current Good Quality Fair Price but Little Known Recommendation Thread

A little lavender reveal Just got one of my orders from the new designers I am trying out. This one is from TDE. Bought this zipper pouch to test. Beautiful woven lavender leather pouch. Was able to customize. Gorgeous leather. Dust bag feels gross/cheap. Overall, I love it!

Hi, anyone has any experience with this brand from www.leoetviolette.com? I like the camera bag and bucket bag styles.

Yes, there are a couple threads about it! Try searching the forum for variances of the name.

I have the Le Violette in grained leather and absolutely adore it. It’s one of my favourite bags. The leather is divine and the lining is smooth leather. I can’t recommend them enough.

Great, thanks! I just signed up for the newsletter for news on 1 new design every month. I think that’s interesting.

Benedetta Bruzziches bags and clutches are works of art. They mostly cost less than €1000, so not as expensive mainstream designers, but still quite steep. Beautiful designs though!

Yesterday, a lady passed me on the street and she had a really lovely leather brown shoulder bag, with a beautiful patina, that caught my eye. I stalked her for a few steps until I lost her, but managed to catch a glimpse of a name stamped on the bag: it read like "Charles et Charles". I can´t find it anywhere.

Do any of you have any idea what brand this might be?

I'm glad the actual pouch feels great (even premium designer dust bags can feel cheap (looking at my newer Guccis))

Charles and Keith?

I all these, like you say, at least from the pics they look like works of art.

My discerning, quality-loving friends, we need these recommendations of the radar brands so thanks to everyone for contributing and especially for reviews of particular bags from experience.

Therefore, the title has been changed to 'Current' (rather than the previous '2018').

It was probably Charles et Charlus, which was a French brand that made gorgeous, high quality bags for a reasonable price. Amazing leather and the prices were only a couple hundred euros.

Unfortunately, they weren't popular enough and they closed last year. You may be able to find them on the secondhand market, especially if you search the French/European sites.

Here's an old post with some pictures of their bags: https://www.parisselectbook.com/en/charles-et-charlus-elegant-bags-that-you-can-personalize/
