Hi all,
I've decided that the more I read this forum, the more complicated it all becomes. There are so many different bags and I really haven't got my head around it at all. I have been looking at Bayswaters and Ledburys and then I find East West - so far so good. BUT when people refer to baby Bayswaters, do they mean a Ledbury, or is this another bag in the family, which is a smaller version. And also which have padlock pouches and which don't?
How can I decide which I'd like to buy next, if I can't sort this out!

^^ Hi Snow Spider Welcome to our forum!!
I suspect people are referring to a Ledbury when they say a 'baby Bayswater' (both have the more square shape) but you'd have to look at the sizing & photos.
In general, Bays have the padlock pouch (or cloche as they're sometimes referred to), but the others don't. However, sometimes Bayswaters don't either (see my Avatar) as they're from the outlets usually.
Have you checked the Photo Reference Thread? There's loads of lovely photos for you to get more of a feel for the differences.
Finally, if you're interested in any bag in particular, be sure to post it in the Authentication Thread (look under Shopping first, then it's in there)

It's different from the Hanover revealed by klp though - has a strap over the top. Is it a Soho?
Could it be a langham? probably got that wrong - not good on that era!! but there is one similar to hanover called something like that
Hello
I wonder if anyone can help me with the names of these two Mulberry bags please. Both brown leather, the larger one is approximately 12.5 in x 10 in and the small one 9.5 in x 4.5 in.
Thank you![/QUOTE]
Hi Debs - I think the first one is a Zinia? The second is a Somerset.
