I have been wishing for over a year to be able to see this unique leather with the signature smoky birch tar oil scent. Today I was very lucky, got my large A4 Ulysses notebook that I will use for work and was also offered the 45cm boliden bag that was gorgeous, but felt too large for my frame and I hope it will find the perfect home, someone who can appreciate the special leather and story behind.

Happy, lucky day, such beautiful leather with such unique and wonderful scent. I wish you the best to use such an amazing piece everyday for work, that's what H is really about.
 
:biggrin: Do tell us!!!
Yes, definitely :)

Thank you dear PT, I agree completely with you on this. My Volynka will see a lot of action and keep my business secrets :)

What a treasure, the agenda cover is the perfect amount of fragrant Volynka. It has found the perfect home with you, echoing Periogirl there!

I love this leather! I was wondering if the brush you’re using comes with it.

Thank you dear frou frou, I believe people are starting to know my passion for Hermès leathers, always looking for those hard to find pieces. This piece will definitely put a smile on my face every time I use it, which will be a lot! I feel I have been hunting for my Volynka forever, trying to experience the leather in some form. I feel so lucky :)
 
Thank you, I requested this leather, hoping to see it in any item, during summer in several boutiques. Most SAs had no clue what I was talking about and I had to explain and show them pictures and the Hermès story about volynka. The Ulysses was surprisingly inexpensive 1370£ and I had to make sure twice before I could believe it :smile: The SA said he would try to charge me more
LoL... typical H... you are so fortunate not only to have this but even more to have found it! Enjoy in good health and long time! :-)))
 
I'm traveling in Munich and the Hermes store here has a mini Volynka exhibition! They had a HAC 40 (I think), another bag I didn't pay attention to, and two agenda covers, each in its own glass display box with its brush. The SA excitedly told me the history of the sunk ship. The display boxes also had a little hole so you can smell the product - PHEW! that is one strong scent. It reminded me of bacon tbh.... the leather is gorgeous however.

Ohh the HAC - that must be amazing! I really wanted to buy the Bolide for DH but, while he loved the leather, he is not a Bolide guy. Still wish we had taken it just to own it :love:

that is amazing!!! Do they have anything in that leather for sale or just for display and stiffing purpose? I can’t wait to smell it!

I'm not sure... the SA said they only had the 4 pieces that were on display so it could very well be that they're exhibition only, but that's just my conjecture.

The smell knocked me over! (And not exactly in a pleasant way I have to say. ..)
