Hey Guys!

I'm hoping to get some insight on this color. It is beautiful and I'm eyeing it for purchase but am confused about the shade.

The seller has it listed as "Cassis" However - the photos they have posted seem to be too "pink". When I google image searched Cassis I'm met with all these scrumptious burgundy / wine shades. Absolutely to die for color from what I'm seeing on google - just not in these particular pictures.

I can't tell if maybe it's just the lighting on these photos? There is no metal tag since it is a giant and the seller hasn't clarified if she has the paper tags or is just guessing. Thoughts? Does it look to be a Cassis under bright light or do you think it could be a different shade?

Going to post a handful so you can see different angles.

This is Casis under brighter lighting. I actually think it is a truer depiction than the ones that make it look like a deep wine color.

Thank you so much for the insight. I've been searching on the forums for reveals and I agree. Majority of the google images make it look like it's a deep wine color but it seems in daylight it has more of a berry tone.

I'm pretty sure it was done for a few of the oldie years. Rainneday has one. And, then was re
Released for 2009. But, I trust you color sense:graucho:

I do also remember reading that it was re-released in 2009 and that color does look like it could be Raisin! Idk if they made them the year Eggplant was released, maybe it is somewhere in one of those threads! GL!
