Thank you! I'm just super finicky with scratches so I think having a calfskin interior would stress me out versus something tough like ostrich (my lambskin and calf leather lined bags give me too much anxiety).
Let's talk Delvaux!

Oh no.. so far we've only done the arizona lining (which is calfskin worked into feeling like supple lambskin) but im hoping theyll be able to accommodate your request.. fingers crossed.
Have you seen photos of the A/W 2020-21 collection? There are 2 ombré lizard bags: a mini Cool Box and a PM Tempête, the latter has my name on it.
The collection’s theme is a Midsummer Night’s Dream. There are some fabulous collector’s items: feathers, beading and embroidery.

I watched the video last night and honestly the campaign is beautiful from the cinematography to the music.
The artistry is definitely there but it all feels a bit too somber (Fall) rather than cheery (Spring) vibe that I'm looking for.
I'm looking forward to reveals from the collection though!
Yes! Those are the ombré lizards that are calling to me for Fall.I watched the video last night and honestly the campaign is beautiful from the cinematography to the music.

Enjoy your new bag! It sort of reminds me of a beach ball reimagined into a luxe bag.
The perfect summer bag. I have the Blue Knight, which is the same style and it's very sturdy.
Beautiful bag! Congratulation!! Nice to know it’s not heavy. Wear it in good health
You guys weren’t kidding about Delvaux resale being awful. I was scrolling through Christie’s and came across this with an estimated USD value of 6K for the lot.

There are big fees charged by auctions. And I don't think the estimated resale price is ever close to the final price, assuming they sell.
Even with the 20% auction fee that would be an absolute steal! I'm wondering if it has to do with the fact that Christie's is still relatively new to the handbag game. I took a quick look at completed listings and they were also surprisingly low. Based on the fact that they didn't post a single photo of the interior nor detailed descriptions of condition highlight their inexperience in this sector. (IMO)
I suspect that some of these auctions have an unrevealed seller's minimum price. And they actually aren't sold. I don't know if that would be proper on the auction house's side, but I was told once that an item didn't actually sell when there had been bids on it. IDK
