Ethel's Big Brown Box

[kroquet]

A big brown box arrived at my office today.

It's a huge box

Any guesses????

Woo Hoo a live reveal. I'll guess paille nuvolato veneta

 

[kroquet]

Nope, but here is a hint. It would look great with a Vanilla Malt or a Grande Latte.

Something worth giving up a Montaigne for...

I know that this might not be a popular bag and there were only 5 bought for the US market, but my pictures can't capture the beauty of the leather and shading.

When I first opened the box, after swooning over the leather, I though, hmmm, do I like this? To be honest, I really was not sure if she would go back or stay, but after having a little play time and putting my things in and seeing the different shapes and forms, it was pure love.

Here she is, the Ebano Nuance. More pics to come

 

[Longchamp]

OOps wrong guess so erased it. This is a beauty. Can't wait for more pix and w/ all your stuff in her.

 

[kroquet]

Bookermoose, the Montaigne is still in my closet. lol

Longchamp - the Nuvolato Veneta had sold out and I couldn't get the Nuance out of my head and had to see it in person. The TGM Picotin has always been on my bagdar, but I could never decide on the right color and with this bag, I had no other choice but ebano which is perfect.

 

[Longchamp]

So far I love it, would love to see more pix.

 

[kroquet]

I really wish I could capture the shading and color of the bag. The leather is incredibly soft and almost has a sheen to it.

Here's the last 2 pics and I will take some more this weekend with my things in it. It will hold a ton!!! I believe this bag satisfies my Cabat lust. Actually, this would make a STUNNING Cabat. Seriously stunning!!!!

 

[Longchamp]

I love the texture and color variation of this bag, Beautiful bag, think you made a great choice. Congrats!

 

[kroquet]

Thanks Longchamp and if I get brave, I might post an action shot in the appropriate thread.

Everyone at work was bowled over by it. The only bad thing is, one of the ladies probably pulled it up on the website and spilled the cost. I hide the cost of these at work as some of them don't get the whole bag thing. lol Oh well,we all have our vices, right?

Congrats, kroquet!!!!!! I love the color shading too and think it's a really special bag. You'll get lots of compliments on this one

 

[kroquet]

Thanks Boxermom! It surely is a bag to be seen in person.

On my FAcebook page, I am a "friend" of Tomas and I was thinking that I should post a picture of this bag with instructions to him to produce a Cabat in this leather. Wonder if he would take my suggestion???:lolots:
