They are made in China. I was contemplating buying one - I have to admit I still am-, but when I checked them out at the store, though beautiful, I had to reconsider....

Hir Ladies,

I need your advice:
I have my bag since November and wearing it (not everyday). When I bought it, I asked the SA if I need any impregnation spray for the bag. The SA said no. I still haven't used anything yet on my bag.


Have you used any impregantion products for your cuir ? What has your SA said about it ?

I got the same answer when I bought mine in one of the Paris stores, but when you read the care tag that comes with the bag (the little card inside) it says to use some water repellant. I sprayed mine with a common water repellant spray (the kind you use for leather shoes etc.) before I used it outside, since it rains a lot here.

Dear Purse_doc,

thanks for your reply.

what color has your cuir ?Has the impregnation spray darkened your bag color? I use my impregnation spray for shoes and it makes leather a bit darker.My bag color is the navy blue...and worried it will look like almost black with impregnation.

Mine is the taupe/brown colour... mine hasn't changed. But it depends on your spray I guess!

My Burgundy tote was Made in France but my small Navy was Made in China. It just depends on the bag.

animals don't have uniform skin....when you get a leather hide whether it is cow or lamb or whatever it is going to have differences. If you want something perfectly uniform get a fake leather or nylon....

sallyca : thank you so much. I just wanna make sure that it is normal. now I get it

My gun metal is hibernating.

the pliage cuir yellow , the yellow of the photo is the same as in real life , its not a lemon yellow but more a banana yellow , lol

, the size is medium

Hi any chance u could tell me the measurement of the width of ur bag? I saw in another post a few girls posting up mod pics with a supposedly small size but it looks like a medium. I'm a similar height to the girls and want a similar size in comparison to what they have but when I checked the measurement online, the size small is very tiny, 25cm wide where as the medium is 32cm wide. I want to use it as an everyday bag/ baby bag.
