Lilly: don't let the handles rest against the body of the bag when you are storing it.
Since the surface of the bag is painted, if there is pressure from the handles
it may lift off the paint on the bag and damage the look.
I often wrap the handles/straps of bags with tissue paper so that if they
end up pressed against the side of the bag they won't bond and take off any
of the color of the bag or deposit any color from the handle or glazing.

Good advice for the newbies, LJ. Since I'm OCD too I've got that covered! :drinks::lol:
Actually if I had shelving I'd just sit them all on the shelf to admire & for ease of use.

I mentioned that there was a HUGE black Florentine I was eyeing. I wanted to use it as my laptop bag. I’m using my Tilton as my laptop bag now, and I’m happy with that. This Huge bag is still available and I’ve been sleeping on it…. Then I see something else I have been wanting to try. Ooooh boy I’m excited……
I don’t know the name of this one. If anyone has this bag please tell me the name of it….
look at the condition of this bag! It was more than I wanted to spend. i liked it and the selller sent me an offer in my sweet spot price. I jumped all over it.

I gifted my small brown tmoro Florentine satchel and gained whatever this bag is in brown tmoro.

Nice bag! Appears to one of the Florentine Pocket line of bags. There's a cb with the same front pocket on DB & I have a natural satchel with the same front pocket.

I’ve seen many of the crossbody but there was something about it that didn’t appeal to me. The shape of this domed one I really like.
How do you like your natural?

Honestly it isn't one I use often because it has a slight visible manufacturing issue at the end of the zipper, but the design of the bag itself is very appealing. It's also from a number of years back.

That's a lovely bag. A domed satchel with an outside pocket is just my spped.
Enjoy your new treasure when it arrives. This style is one of the early Florentine
styles. I remember seeing it in the Dooney boutique in the late 90's or early 2000s.
Sorry I don't know the name.

we have an extremely urgent matter to discuss. :biggrin:

Is this a new style? Because it’s adorable. I was looking at the pebble grain one on the site.

So I've been digging around for this purse. I have only found 2 listings of this bag for sale. And it does seem it was being sold last year on Dooney, in June 2022. And the Google cache from ILD is from Oct 13, 23. So they did have some around during the Flo sale.

I really do hope they bring this back.

Flo coin case is a great buy. I have all the colors left, or I would have ordered them. 😁
I did get the large zip wristlet (not the double zip) in several colors. Also a great buy,
and with only 1 zipper I hope it will be a little lighter. All these SLGs add weight to my
handbags. But at least the Flo SLGs don't have a metal plate.
