I can’t believe how quickly this arrived from Japan! I am so pleased with this bag. I love the floral print and detail, along with the shape (I’m a sucker for bucket bags), but assumed it would be more of a printed canvas. Nope, definitely either satin or silk. Honestly, I’m not sure on the name of this bag but I think it’s from 2010.

I've never seen one of these either! It looks to be in fantastic shape for a non-leather bag too. And that brushed gold HW elevates it even more. Nice add! :loveeyes:

Every time I see this bag, i have to stop and stare at it in awe. It’s beautiful and unique. Congrats!

Thanks! It's a great size too. Smaller than the regular Pompon, probably most comparable to a Day. Strap isn't comically long either. I suspect this will get a lot of use this spring/summer on sunny days.

Modeling pic when you get around to it please. I don't have a good sense of what the Pampille looks like worn. Side by side with Pompon (if you have it) would be much appreciated as well.
 
Here you go. I know, my sweater horribly clashes with the print but whatevs. :lol:

I sold off the larger Pompon because the G21 hardware + my chromebook/portable monitor made it so darn heavy. But I do have a photo with both items inside it and another with the Pampille. You can see they fit but not well in the latter, but totally covered in the former. Chromebook is 13”, monitor is 14”.

Two distinctly different shades of RED have arrived.:hbeat:

F/W 2008 Rubisse (Ruby) City - A deeper darker shade of red with pinkish undertones. This one has soft Agneau or possibly Chevre leather. No mirror or authenication cards on this one to help point me in the right direction. :heart:

F/W 2007 Tomato Cameau (Camel) Red Bowler - What a unique bag! Red is bright with orange undertones. The leather is thick, textured, and chewy. I wish you all could reach through the monitor to feel it. She's stuffed in this pic, but without anything in her, she has slouchiness just not as much as the softer leathers. It has magnetic and zipper closures on top. This is a large workhorse that seems like it's durable and would make an excellent travel companion. Kudos to the wonderful @vesna for posting this one in the Finds. :hugs:
