I just purchased the large patent Sabrina with brass hardware, but I'm also loving the the large leather Sabrina with brass hardware. I've read the reviews regarding the patent Sabrina, and some aren't so favorable. Also, I was really hoping the hardware on the patent Sabrina would be lighter in color - more of a goldish. The hardware on the large Sabrina looks a little more goldish. I guess I'm having second thoughts on the patent leather. Which do you think is nicer? I've attached a picture of both.
Need help picking a Sabrina

but that's not brass, thats amber hardware last time i asked the SA. It's really dark and not shiny as the gold. that must be a typo on the coach website, bkz that's not brass for sure
i spent hours with sa's and research regarding my black patents, and i had several... ??? or did they come up with something new i don't know about????I personally prefer the dark hardware better, it's more rare and dosen't come across often. One thing I didn't like with my patent sabrina was that her handles always kinda "sticked" when i was trying to wear her as shoulder bag and put the handles down. The regular leather seems more comfortable. But for the looks I like the patent better.
I was looking at the patent/brass bag IRL last week and it can best be described at blackened copper. That is really what it looked like to me. So, real copper will tarnish green.....but think of the color of old pennies that turn black instead. It is just a blackened penny color. It is a gorgeous bag.
Regardless of the hardware, I'm not a huge fan of patent and prefer the regular leather. I live in extreme summer heat and patent just sticks to my skin. It's a gorgeous bag though.
