Pompeii vs vacchetta for a Modena or a Victoria? I know the vacchetta has weight, I'm thinking about looks.
Marco doesn't recommend Pompeii for Victoria. Are you going for a more dressed up look or casual? Vachetta is a more casual leather for lack of a better word, and will probably slouch more over time compared to Pompeii. Take a look through the leather thread for a better idea of what you may like. https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/massaccesi-leather-customization-reference-thread.975530/
 
Done. After all my whining about vachetta, I ordered the daphne in taupe vachetta ( nuts.. i just love the looks...) dark gunmetal and asked Marco to pick a fun lining. Also a copper diamond flora... and I ordered the inside half of a little tupilano since I was gifted an exterior. China blue, which was my exterior was gone, so I ordered the black Pompeii. Done. Broke. ...... wait... Maybe a sample sale....
 
An update:
I was trying to explain all of this to my husband (as well as the purse forum site in general). Thought some of you might find this funny. His theory is that everyone on the site is probably fake and works for the company (or various companies) and that for all I know, all of the posts here might be fake. lol (I think he was sorta serious, sorta joking). But, he was suspicious about me ordering something right when it closed and also because I have to make a payment through paypal. However, strangely though, he was like can't you just order a used one from ebay?? So - looks like I'm going to have to pass on this. Though I will be stocking ebay for angel midi bags.

Congrats on your final orders. I have bookmarked probably 10 different companies or so that look interesting from the 2018 good quality thread. Though many folks seem loyal to some of the brands there so I sort of doubt I would be able to buy preloved on ebay or others sites.

I can totally understand how he would think that. I have been on here 1.5 years and if anyone is working for him I do not know who it would be. And , lol, they have spent all their money buying his bags. I personally have 11 , 12 when my new one gets here. And we all had enough confidence in him to give him money when he is closing! So sorry you did not get one, maybe you will find a pre loved one.

The Little Tulipano is Sugar Cane it is not China Blue.
