Hey gals! I recently purchased a balenciaga online but I don't know the color and style. It may not be visible from the pictures but it's blueish/green in real life (more blue undertones). A very unique color i believe :graucho: Can anyone help? Also can anyone tell me if this is an authentic bag? I have added the pictures below :)

It is definitely from 2006 and from F/W and is typically referred to as Camel. Some people call it Cognac, but the official name is Camel. Hope that helps.

Hi, Saira.

Got the bag, here is a pic with flash and without, it's much darker than I thought it would be and now I'm not sure if it is Camel. Do they darken with age? Or could this be the Marron color with the same tag?

Thanks!

SGH City Anthracitie? Saira is much better at this if you post it on the Identification thread.

I am of two minds. Part of me thinks that it is 2010 Anthra, but part of me doesn't. I also think it could be Canard, but it does not have that quintessential teal piping like other Canard bags do. Louie, is the piping more teal in person, than in photos, like this bag?

Oh wow, that is quite a bit different. These pictures do not look like Camel to me. It looks like 06 truffle. Maroon was from 2004 and would not have this tag. Camel can darken with age, but not to this extent. The pictures definitely look like two different bags. I would ask the seller if she conditioned the bag or applied leather honey which can significantly darken a bag. Here is another camel first https://www.google.com/search?q=bal...-color-family-pics-only-140426-2.html;608;472, In your auction pics, it just looks a bit drier.

Yikes. I'll ask the seller. It's definitely a W tag and everything else looks correct except the color.

I've added two pics, one without flash and one with of the inside pocket, to see what the original color was. Does this help identify?

I'm convinced your bag is 06 Truffle based on your photos and the zipper tape. You can see that it has faded in the photo where the front zipper pocket is open. I see where you may have thought it was Maroon. I forgot that there was a 2006 maroon. It isn't in any of the color charts.

Completely forgot about Truffle! Thank you! It's pretty than the color swatch, not as veiny and it feels like 05 leather so I'm happy. Just need to send it off for the handles and it will be beautiful.

Thanks as always for your help, Saira!
