So an update on the illusion box bag. Actual photo below. The hardware is more of a shiny black than matte, does this make any difference with the wear? Also there are some marks on the hardware and leather already from being on display, are these easily wiped off?

Personally at those prices I’d never accept a display model.

Need help deciding! My SA told me there is a Margritte Tempete available but I’m also eyeing this box leather illusion Tempete also available. They’re very similar with my perceived pros and cons below.
illusion Tempete MM: pros I love the whole look, box leather, white trim, matte black hardware, cons: inside is plain tan

margritte Tempete MM: the cloud inside is the selling point, otherwise I saw one in person and the leather seems rather delicate not box and no matte black hardware

Would appreciate help: does anyone know if delvaux matte black hardware is prone to chipping/easy wear?!

It’s unfortunately the only one they have. It’s odd that from my research this style is from 2016, could it be that old sitting on the shelf or are they remaking old styles? This store also had a madam bag available for reference, I thought those were discontinued.

It is NOS (New old stock), I've seen items from many seasons past at other boutiques, which is fun because if you missed out on something that was previously released. Sometimes you can have a pleasant surprise from a world wide search run by the HQ in Belgium.

I wanted to share my very first delvaux, the Magritte brillant MM! It's a pre-loved buy, and I was incredibly excited to find it, as it had the older strap style, which I prefer on the MM size. This was a dream bag for me, but I know that it won't be my last delvaux.

Beautiful find!! Iconic of the brand! I’d love to get the mini (charm) version of this to accessorize my Tempête :)

Great choice! I have the mini in the older strap style which I also prefer. The rolled handle is also different compared to the current style.
