I prefer Verona to Pebbled for Hera. Thicker, softer, more drapey and more "chewy", as
@southernbelle43 would say,- perfect hobo material.
BUT: I think I prefer Verona to all other leathers, so I am very biased and a completely unreliable source
Nope, didn't get a Calista Midi

.
Because I had a full sized Calista in Brown Verona on the way and the other Verona colours on offer were not right for me. So my future Calista Midi will have to be in a different type of leather.
Now that my full sized Calistas in Brown and Garnet Red Verona have arrived, I wish at least one of them was a Midi like yours, with 2 inch extended shoulder drop. Calista in Verona is a lot "larger" than Calista in Tuscania. I'd never order a Midi in Tuscania...
Anyway, I have a Merinos and a Sheen Calista in transit, expected to arrive in a couple of weeks time
