Hi everyone. I hope I'm posting in the right place - apologies if not, I'm new here :-)
I have a question about the patina, please? If a 16 year-old bag is still very light, does this mean it's a fake? It hasn't been used much so does that factor in to the patina effect? I'm concerned that it's too light in color still for its age. Thank you.

I got this bag almost three years ago and I’m so sad that the middle of the handles look like this. I don’t know what I did wrong. I even did Apple guard and tanning bed treated it when I got it. Makes me want to sell it but I always wanted this bag ☹️ Some of you have had them so long! Granted I did wear this daily but the picture doesn’t quite show how bad the very center is. I just want it all to look nice and honey.

I’m going to get a different bag that had a strap so maybe the hand handle is the issue.
