FYI in case you are not active in the Facebook group -- Marco is able to get the original Sauro Tan Vacchetta from the tannery, and it is included in the 25% off Black Friday promo.

It's one of my favorite leathers ever. I have it in a full-sized Soulmate that I bought from someone else, but it is honestly not the best leather for that bag. It's too structured and heavy for such a large bag, so I don't carry it very often.

I ordered an Astra Hobo with beige contrast stitching, beige lining, dark brown edge paint, dark gunmetal hardware, and a 10.6" strap drop. I think this style will suit the leather much better.

Haven't received my full sizes Black Verona Hera yet - I told Marco to take his time as I know he was backlogged for months due to Paolo being away sick.
This is my Garnet Red Calista and my Black Verona Hera Midi:

New goodies arrived!

I’m absolutely in love with Iride. It was exactly what I was hoping it would be. Yep, definitely need more Irides in my life. The only Iride modification I made is a full flap instead of curved. The Iride is black Croco. I also received two Phoebes in HMV( rust and blue). This blue is the dark blue I’ve been waiting for. I might need something larger in that blue for the BF sale. Modifications for the Phoebes: slightly thicker strap, permanently attached to the exterior instead of an interior attachment. I kept the original strap length, but I should have followed my gut and lengthened the straps a bit, not too sure if I will like this length long term. And last, but not least, Demetra Alto, trimmed version in black deerskin with 1in straps. Looking forward to using that first and seeing how smooshy it gets. On first thought, I’m thinking I still prefer the size of original Demetra, but we shall see. Not the best lighting for this time of day, but I wanted to share. Also here’s a comparison of Demetra Alto in black deer and Demetra full size in Midnight Tuscania. I think I made the strap drop on the Alto 9 inches, and I made the strap drop of the full sized 10 inches.

What a gorgeous selection of bags -- you must be thrilled! Love the full flap on the Iride, and the croco. The Phoebes are lovely in HMV, and the strap modification are great.

I hope you do not mind - I am planning to copy both your Deerskin Demetra Alto and your Croco Iride :P

So please tell if there are any details you now think you should have altered or added :biggrin:
