I know it can be confusing with different leathers called similar names, but this thread is for Barenia Faubourg only.

For the original (smooth) Barenia please post here:

Curious, anyone have an idea how common Barenia Faubourg is in production in terms of Birkin Push offer?
Relative to smooth Barenia or even Box, I'd say it's more available. I know folks say BF is push offer only but I am not certain that's really the case. It's certainly not the case in non-Birkin/Kelly bags.

BF, according to multiple stores, could be podium ordered a few years ago right after the initial launch. That said, I have not asked in the past couple years. Given the number of offers in BF seen on the forum, I would tend to think that it is still available for podium. Push offers are rarer than that.
 
Does anyone know why some leathers stain when touched with water and why the barenia faubourg doesn’t? Does swift do that too? My watch strap should be swift leather but not sure. But it wasn’t stained after water splashed from hand washing etc either. Is it just the Hermes leathers that have this quality?
I accidentally got my toddlers excuse the description but wet half chewed granola bar on my barenia Picotin. I didn’t notice for a few and saw once we go into the car. Immediately wiped it off and had a big dark stain. Sighed and reminded myself it’s only a bag. Kid mom life. Checked it a few times on the way home and when we got home the stain disappeared. It was definitely a mix of blueberry grease and toddler spit/water lol. No idea how it didn’t stain :facepalm: :amazed:

I spilled coffee the first time I used the bag, no toddler to blame for this one, just klutsy me. Was on the way out so didn't have time to treat it or dab it. By the time I got to my destination, the stain was completely gone.
