Hi Daisy, I had a somewhat longer Mystic journey. I fell in love with the medium storm grey, ordered it and felt uncomfortable with the sturdy bar and the shiny golden hardware. So I returned it and went for the small one in desert. Again, for the price I was not really convinced and though I quite never return anything, I returned this bag as well. Then I thought I made a mistake, as I really like this design and kept stalking the larger one in storm grey and ended up buying it for a steal. And now, after using it for a couple of months, I must say I'm more than happy with it. For me it is not "high maintenance" as some say (I use my bags and don't pamper them), no significant scratches on the leather or the hardware. The only thing bothering is that you really need two hands closing the bag. And coming back to your question: Yes, the bigger one is way bigger, it holds a lot, my MacBook eg and my purchases if necessary, it's a real shopper or workhorse. The smaller one holds more than enough for your daily use. It's up to your personal preferences. I always carry my big purses around. But due to the thick leather, both are not on the lightweight side.
Hope, that helps! For a size comparison
you may look at post #82 with my later returned small mystic.

Thank you so much for all this information. I went a head and ordered one of each. I'm so happy to hear you don't find the bag high maintenance.

If you are keeping two, I prefer the light and the black one. Black bags can be a little boring but contrast of the hardware to gives it oomph. The light beige is a gorgeous color. The tan is pretty but the color is a little too yellow for my taste.

My precious bags <3
This was also my recent purchase, so I did not carry this bag around, as we are in a lockdown since the New Years, but I am really looking forward to. I’ve been eyeing that bag for a very long time and when I heard it is going to be discontinued, my thought was now or never - either get it or...

Update on the Mystic...someone had mentioned that this scratches easily. This has not been my experience - no marks on the leather, no scratches on the hardware. It is a really beautiful and beautifully made bag. It’s a shame it’s discontinued.
Update on Mystic(medium): Once I finally received it about a month ago, I began using it and haven't swapped out since! I adore it for daily use and I find that it does not scratch easily - and I have been deemed "The Destructress" by one of my managers, so that is saying something! Thank you everyone for the help!
Hi, I am late to the mysic party, or rather passed up on it when it was on sale every where. Now I regret that decision after having read the wonderful reviews in this thread (in a single sitting). I wish I had seen this thread sooner.
Anyways
Does anyone know a small black mystic some where on sale?
Many Thanks
