It's got to be a Parker. Nice find Kate!

Definitely a Parker shoulder bag- I have it in black. This version has so many pretty details. Congrats!

Congrats! That is beautiful! Great price, too! :D:woohoo:

Very special

thanks, I am looking forward to getting it!
 
I won this bag on an online charity auction site and Beenburned has confirmed that it is genuine, but neither of us could find out any information about it! I haven't received it yet but I am dying to get my hands on it!

In the meantime I am posting the auction pictures here in the hope that one of my fellow TPFers knows some information about the bag.

The style number is 13417 and it was made in Italy in 2008. I'm pretty sure that it comes from the Parker line and the nearest thing that I could find on the Coach Wayback Machine is the rosegold leather Parker Small Flap 13462 (see the screenshot below).

I would love to know any information about my new (to me!) bag: the name, color, when it was released, and the original retail price. The creed patch says that it is snake so I have been looking at snakeskin bags online and I think that it is Karung snake, but that is just a guess.

Come on TPFers! Help me to solve this beautiful mystery! (Thanks in advance for your assistance!)
I love the strap! It looks like a Chanel.

Thanks! I contacted the charity auction today and asked them to box it and ship it carefully and to wrap up the handle so it wouldn't get damaged, or leave imprints on the bag. I offered to pay extra to make sure it is shipped safely. The woman was very nice and promised t ship it securely.

I am so afraid that it will be shoved in an envelope and jammed into my mailbox! :panic:

Wow, thank you! I knew that some TPF genius would be able to identify it! Mine looks like a darker pink but that might just be the auction photos.

The creed says that it is genuine snake so I will have to see what it looks like when I receive it.

Thank you again, any idea of the original retail price?

:tpfrox::ty:
I'm not sure about price. I do know the python Parker exotic small flap, also a part of that collection, without the beaded handle was $1100. The collection was the Coach Resort Collection, and came out March 2009. Hope that helps. It's a great find, and definitely worth a lot, especially because of it's rarity. Congrats and enjoy!

That's fantastic information, I can't thank you enough!

I was looking for info on different types of snakeskin on another forum and I was told by 2 different people that Coach never use genuine exotic skins for their bags; but I don't think that is always true. The creed said that this bag is made of "genuine snake" so I think that it is real snakeskin, isn't that correct?

Those people are wrong.

Coach definitely used snakeskin for some of its items, as evidenced by your bag and the wallets that I had.

Here's an example of the 6A10 wallet.

And they've also used python.
