This is perfection. I LOVE what you and Marco created with this style. I always liked Little Athena if it weren't for the upright handles. You make me seriously covet that style!!

the China Blue looks like Navy Blue here, unlike the other we saw.
Anyway , does Marco Still send out leather samples?
Love the modshots. The midi Minerva is gorgeous and I love your dress as well. Stunning. Enjoy your fabulous new bag.
I agree on the color of amaranto one of my first MM bags was a midi Selene in Amaranto leather. Still one of my favorites such a great shade of red. Of course I think there is nothing better than a red bag!!
Wow wow and wow. I love all your bags. This one is just gorgeous. Of course I love the amethyst pompei one of my favorite leathers. Such a fun color. Your bags are gorgeous.And, Zhoe legend in river blue and bordeaux vacchetta, light gunmetal hw, and burgundy lining. I am so pleased with how beautifully this bag turned out.

These are stunning. I love the leather and lining combination. I also love the Daphne such a great leather choice so unusual. Love them.
My all time favorite MM leather is Africa metallics. I love love the lead Africa metallic it is such a great leather. Of course I love all metallics so I asked Marco if there was any chance he could get some more Africa leathers. He went to the tannery and here are the Africa leathers he was able to source. Ignore the label of AQUILA he said he was tired when he created the photos and labeled them incorrectly - they are all AFRICA leathers. The colors are amazing and Marco told me to introduce these leathers he is doing a 20% off on all MM styles through end of day Sunday. I am thinking a Little Muse or Little Athena with Tenkrats mods in perhaps acid yellow, light beige, avocado or mud. But I have until Sunday to decide.
PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE NOT AQUILA LEATHERS THEY WERE LABELED INCORRECTLY THEY ARE AFRICA LEATHERS. ALSO THEY ARE NOT METALLIC THEY ARE RT LEATHERS WHICH ARE REGULAR TANNING PROCESS (No lux or metallic etc).

Yes they are. I was hoping for metallic but these colors are so saturated and amazing. Of course it is difficult to pick one but I have narrowed it down to about 3 or 4 favorites!!
Wow, I thought Africa leathers were gone forever. I have a blue Africa Selene that is one of my favorites. It wears like iron and is so different. It is the one bag that strangers comment on when I carry it.
Now you know why I asked Marco if he could get some more Africa leather. It is my favorite leather. It wears well but is not too heavy amazing leather. The colors are stunning and it is a very different leather as you said.
According to Marco he says that the weight and thickness is similar to Verona leather. He told me pebbled is heavier and nappa and merinos are lighter. Verona and Africa are the same in weight. Hope that helps.
I agree. Medium in weight compared to my other leathers. Talking about it made me want to get mine out and carry it. I have neglected it for a while. Here is my beauty (sorry about the background, I always seem to be at my desk when I decide to take a picture) :
