Hi! I'm thinking about a large bucket in brandy..there is brandy/avion and brandy/Cleo. Opinions? Can anyone describe Cleo? It appears to be a cream color? Thanks!!

As the buckets tend to be a black hole when you are searching for anything in it I would go with the lighter color and choose Cleo - although I really like the Avion interior.

Wasn't sure where to post this at first, but I decided here would be best. Saw a photo of this on IG, so google'd it to make sure it was forreal! What do you guys think?

hi, I asked this before on the bucket thread and was told it isn't bigger nor much heavier. I have the saffiano regular bucket.

These bags are all extremely light. I don't think you will have a problem with weight no matter what leather you choose.

Agreed. That said, I have both and they are probably the same weight.

Received a peony calf bag today. It's my first calf bag (although im unsure about whether or not I'm keeping it) I have to say - wow, the calf leather is soooooo soft right off the bat. Very supple as well! So different from the veg tan leather. Still very light, but so different. I'm pleasantly surprised 😊 im thinking I need a few of these 😏

I love the calf leather! It's so nice because it's soft, but still has structure.

So I am very excited to get MG saffiano leather mini bucket today, however, i found the leather smells kinda weird, like laundry detergent to me...is it normal?

There's a thread about the calf leather having a light smell. I have not heard yet about the saffiano though.

If this has already been posted I apologize. Will the Sand calf leather patina as well? I love the look of patina.
