Haha, since I am a Swede - when I say "I think it is silver" what I actually mean "It is very obvious silver" ;)

Swedes are that way :P so the bag has silver hardware, really can't make it pale gold even if I very much want to :/ and there is no obvious diffrence in hardware color, but the zipper could be pale gold if you really try hard. But I think it is mostly a lightning effect.

Just chiming in on your newest addition! Your Pandora is definitely in silver hardware. Based on my observations from visiting department stores, I noticed that Givenchy has started pairing Pepe leather with silver hardware all last year. Anything with gold were leftovers from the year before. My mini Pepe in Anthracite was paired with silver as well (which was actually what I was looking for). I don't know if new Pandoras have gold hardware anymore because I haven't seen any in awhile. Hope this helped! :smile1:

Thank you! I got it from Yoogi's Closet with a "like new" condition. The authenticity code and site claims that it was from 2012 :smile1:

I absolutely love it! There is something about the croc leather that is just too awesome. I was drooling a lot over a croc + suede + smooth leather pandora. But I chose the pepe since the bag was for traveling and I really can't baby a suede bag when travelling. But I would love to a croc pandora (with or without suede) for daily use :D

Thank you! This also confirms that my Pandora is with silver hardware. If I continue loving the bag I will have to get it with gold hardware when they go back to that again ;) Or by it pre-loved.

But honestly - I think the bag looks very good with silver hardware. Normally I am quite sensitive about too much silver (I really really love the black-gold combination in general), BUT there are several bags that looks as good in either gold or silver and there are bags that looks better with gold or better with silver.

It seems like the new black pepe only comes with silver. So I really made an effort to find black pepe with gold hard ware - and got one with silver haha. I love the bag but prefer gold. So I am not happy with the store (Tessabit in Italy) or farfetch (since the description said gold) but I haven't done anything about this since I don't have time or energy and I like the appearance of the bag.

I actually found a post here at tPF where someone also ordered gold hardware but got silver, also farfetch and a store in italy (maybe the same..).

Yup this was me! Was so bummed especially since I even reached out to the store before purchasing it and they confirmed it was gold. After I got it, I reached out to ten other retailers on far fetch and all had the same issue. My store even reached out to Givenchy to see if they could order a gold one but no luck. In the end I kept it as I still love it and got such a great deal and the company gave me $50 refund

Yes! Givenchy pieces are very edgy so I actually prefer its bags with silver hardware. I think you should stick with it :smile1:

Then I was right. They actually don't have any black pepe Pandoras with gold hardware. Why do they keep on selling them when they know the description is wrong? I get so tired. It can't be that hard to change one word from gold to silver. I only ordered from Farfetch since it was with gold (according to the description).

Anyway, nice that you got a $50 refound. It wasn't 50$ off next buy? I will never shop from farfetch again, am so disappointed now that I am informed about that they actually know about the error in description :(

I was so happy to finally have a Pandora in my arms so I started using it directly. So I can't send it back now and will keep it. And I also learned not to trust Farfetch. I am just lucky this bag works so well with silver :)
