Hello,
can anybody here help me? Looks this workmanship normal ? Or is this a bad issue ? Don’t hope so. Please help me
It’s a m/l classic flap. I posed t(3 right and the left side. It’s on the opening flap
thank you
I'm not seeing what you're trying to point out...Can you be more specific?
This. Looks like a little bit leather is missing and instead a hole is there. Like an open place. The other side looks good

R you focusing on the "scruff" at the extreme corner?
It's not that obvious really unless u scrutinise it.
If that's your concern.... then I would say. . is not 100% "normal" but it could happen. It's lambskin afterall, and that scruff possibly happened with the craftsman is trying to sew or fold a part of "stubborn" leather.
I wouldn't let it bother me coz it's really not obvious. I've seen worse conditioned bags being sold n well accepted by the buyer.

I guess if we can’t see it, it’s fine, and enjoy that gorgeous bag!

I have a m/l classic flap from 2008 and the lining leather doesn't go all around on both sides actually. The leather ends where yours does (in the one photo you are asking about) and is tucked under when it hits the edge to secure it.
So to me yours looks ok to me—it's a lovely bag wear her often!
I see what you are pointing out. If you just bought the bag, I would advise you to return it.
Really depends on the SA you approach.
Some "rare and honest" SA will admit the fault and take it back to the SM.
(my SA would probably do that coz she always makes sure i get a brand new piece especially if it's lambskin. she always advises me against display pieces unless it's hard to come by or i don't mind it)
Otherwise, most SAs ( speaking for past random experiences ) , they'll just say it's inevitable to come aross some imperfections and we should just accept it and there's nothing wrong with imperfections as the bags are hand stitched.
