Oh yes I think it’s barenia that he told me. Maybe they gave you the price for 31? This is a 25. Do barenia have the characteristics that my SA mentioned? The nice smell, aging look, scratches will settle over time? Thanks.
Hooray for the Halzan...

The name does sound like what my SA told me. Can you direct me to the one you mentioned in 31? So I can take a look at the pictures. Thanks a lot.
edited because I am sure it’s Barenia Faubourg now. Because the made in logo inside the bag is not the gold color inside, just impressed.

Please check out this post in the Everything Barenia Faubourg thread:
Thank you so much for the help! I like the bag ever more now knowing that it’s the Barenia leather! I was too excited in the store and wasn’t really listening to my SA I guess lol. I waited 3 weeks for the appointment with my SA.
Yes. So if the logo is impressed, it is definitely barenia faubourg leather. Congrats!
Hello all Halzan lovers! I have a couple of questions for you guys - I have 2 Halzan 31 right now, bleu encre & rose extreme w/ RDC interior, both Clemence. I LOVE them. They suit my needs well, size is great as I am tall, etc. As such, I was looking to get more colors, but the colors my SA has right now that are bright (which I do like ) are both in the 25 - feu & rose Texas. She has 31 in jaune ambre, Bleu Frida, Craie & Nata. (She also has 24/24 in bamboo, omg, it's gorgeous but seems like a LOT of green?).
SO my question is, would you go with size or color? I like that the 31 fits a plus phone in the pockets so easily, long wallet, etc etc and folds over no issues. With the 25 not fitting a phone in the outside pockets, is that more of a hassle for anyone? Second, are the strap lengths the same for being able to crossbody? And last, what does everyone think of jaune ambre? I usually skew purples and pinks, but trying to expand my color horizons
TIA for any feedback! Below are the 2 Halzan 31 I have right now....

TIA for any feedback! Below are the 2 Halzan 31 I have right now....Regarding your first question, I always look at functionality of bag before color/leather. It’s really easy to get distracted by the gorgeousness of all the colors and leathers. For this particular bag, fitting my phone in the outer pocket is essential for me. You need to decide if that key functional difference in the 25 would work for you. Maybe force yourself not to use the outer pocket for your phone for a while and see if the bag still works for you... If not, then just wait for the right colors to arrive in the 31.SO my question is, would you go with size or color?

You’re right. The phone in the outer pocket is a big thing, and one that drew me to the bag in the first place!
So, I have a 31 Halzan and was thinking of getting a 25, but again the placket in the back to hold a phone is of great importance to me, as well. Would a cell phone fit on the back of a 25? I haven't seen the 25 in person as I'm nowhere near an Hermes boutique. Thanks in advance for all for your help!
I will confirm when my SA is back in and let u know. If the phone fits, by chance, then 25 is great. If not, 31 I think, is the best option for me as well.
Ok, so she sent me a video with an iPhone 8 Plus, and it DID fit in the 25, but it was snug. The previous poster who said I would stretch out the pockets over time is probably correct. So, I went with a pair of 31 in Bleu Frida & Jaune Ambre instead of the 25 in Rose Texas & Feu....Sorry I can't post a video here!Thanks for checking on this, Tracey!
I´m over the moon I was able to get the halzan 25 in my wishlist combination rouge sellier ghw 
The only mini downside is I didn´t know the phone wouldn´t fit well in the backpocket.. however I can live with that..
but I already put the 31 on my wishlist too, this bag is soo useful, chic and versatile
I also very recently started doing videos and now I´m spamming the forum with my visuals of this bag cause I adore it so much..
but it might be helpful for someone considering the halzan 25..
