Gorgeous bag! Is that a fuzzy stitch you are showing us? It looks like the leather is torn.

The stitching is a loose end and the leather is where the bonding has not been taken to the end of the edge . I am just keeping my fingers crossed that neither of these weaken the integrity of the bag itself. I love it and I love the colour.... but the magnet doesn't seem to work well either. If I put anything in the bag and use it with the chain over my shoulder it gapes wide open, making it easy prey for pickpockets. If I ever order another one I will make sure to pay extra for a zip instead.
Anyway, she goes perfectly with the scarf I wore today and she certainly has brightened up my days since I bought her!

For you bellebellebelle19 and all the MM fans! Here she is, my Sabrina Midi in Taupe Merinos with SHW. Her brother Black Merinos with DGMHW worked his way into a few photos too!

You should definitely tell Marco about the stitching - he takes great pride in the shop's work and responds very seriously to this kind of issues. I had a strap stitches come loose on one of my bags on its first use, and Marco reimbursed me for the cost of local cobbler fixing it here (which was only 12 bucks anyways, thankfully).

Thank you Totinscience - that's useful to know. I will see how it goes and if it gets worse I will get in touch with him.

I definitely think you should just drop him a quick email just as a heads up on the condition in which your bag arrived, and not wait to see if it gets worse. I don't know if it's just because it's a close up, but that would definitely bother me. That's unfortunate that your first experience wasn't completely satisfying.

The silver HW on that taupe color is outstanding. I would have thought gold with that color, but the silver is perfect. That just shows I have no taste at all! Lovely.

My first MM was in Merinos based on the reference thread. I thought it would be my go to leather. So far it's my only Merinos bag as other leathers grabbed my attention. One of these days I'll go back to Merinos .

While I consider vacchetta the queen of leathers and pebbled the work horses, merinos is the shy, beautiful and soft wall flower. She does not dazzle, but once chosen, she blooms! Feeling poetic today, lol.
