1-Ask customer service about where order fulfillment takes place, and specifically ask about duties. IMO your bag order will be fulfilled from Europe, unless you contact the NYC boutique directly.
2-The weight of the bag is a function of size and type of leather. A box calf MM will weigh more than a crispy calf MM, for example. Again, ask customer service about the weight of the bag in your specifications.
Always good to remember that high-end luxury customer service is usually top-notch - you can ask anything about the product. Delvaux offers personal stylist service, and they can answer questions about size, weight, coloours, etc.
Good luck in your decision!

If you go to the US website and ask for availability, you will be contacted via text from someone in the US store when one arrives there. That's what happened to me at least. They were OOS on the CoolBox MM in black so I asked to be notified. Got a text from a NYC SA and in about a week the bag was in my hands. It was shipped directly from the NYC store by that SA.

Hi! I have some questions about Delvaux:
1.I have read here that they have opened a store in New York. If I shop from https://us.delvaux.com/en, will i be receiving the bag from New York? I am asking this so I know if I should expect import duties. I’m from Delaware, USA.

2. I have tried researching about the weight of brillant mini and mm, but cannot find one. Does anyone know about this?

Thank you.

I have both brillant mini & MM. The mini is good size. It actually fits quite a lot since the bottom is big. I don't carry MM much. Too heavy & big.

Hi. Can anyone tell me their thoughts on the Delvaux Pin bags. I'm looking at the Pin Swing. If you have the bag, how is it holding up? Do the holes in the base of the bag cause any issues for example dirt etc. getting into the bag, sagging, wear? Does the lack of lining bother you or cause any issues with structure? I'm looking for an everyday bag that is durable and debating between the Delvaux Swing and the Loewe small Puzzle, both in black.
Thank you!

Hi! After lusting after quite a few Delvaux bags and carefully editing my needs vs. want list, I decided I needed a Cool Box MM in black. Have an H 24/24 in BF, and a Valextra Serie S in a muted grey blue. Didn't have a casual but nice black bag. Unfortunately they were OOS on the website so I activated the link to alert me. Got a text a few weeks ago from a wonderful SA at the NYC store and shortly thereafter the bag was in my hands. It fits just what I need and I use the same insert as what I use in my 24/24 and Kelly 32s (MaiTai). It's perfectly comfortable crossbody. Love the cool zipper and the quality is top notch. Mod shots (sorry took in a haste just before running out the door so they aren't very good):

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know if there's a price difference between the Tempete in crispy calf and box calf leather ?
And any opinion on the two leather?
Planning to get one but cant decide on the material :giggle:

Thank you!

Hello
Each leather has its own vibe. You can’t go wrong with either bag.
-Box calf is smooth, sophisticated, and more formal. It scratches more easily, is heavier, and costs more. Box is the queen of leathers, but is more precious to maintain.
-Crispy calf is a grained leather with visible veining, comparable to Hermès togo leather. It will wear better than box calf, it lighter, and costs a bit less. It is a great leather for everyday, more casual wear.
Good luck with your decision!

Thank you for the detailed description!
I think I'll go with crispy calf because it's lighter. And the more visible veining makes it look like it has more personality, if that makes any sense :lol:
