Ode to Barenia - please show your bags and accessories :o)

I know it's confusing having two leathers of a similar colour, but if you are posting on Barenia Faubourg please post here: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/everything-barenia-faubourg.982271/unread

This thread is for original original (smooth) Barenia only

I took her to the after sales department in FSH to check a couple of things I was slightly concerned about but all is ok and she was the perfect traveling companion! She's now going to get a well earned rest for a few days but I must say I absolutely adore this leather

And here is a pix of her little cousin chilling at home!

She's beautiful! B30? I looked at a twilly for my K while I was in Paris and couldn't decide whether it looked right with Barenia, but I'm kind of wishing I'd got one now!

Yes. She's a 30. Can't wait to get a proper patina, still at the ugly duckling age but I am committed to make her my summer bag this year, hope by next year she will have one!

I have different colors twilies but to my taste the basic colors work best. I am sure whatever you end up choosing is good, it's a versatile color and will work with pretty much everything, in my humble opinion.

My latest Barenia piece! Was looking for something else, and found this beautifully weathered jewel! (And the price was fantastic!)

Oh wow! I love that! The leather looks fantastic. Do you know how old it is?

I don't. Not yet anyway. I found her online and they didn't include a snap of the year stamp. I suspect though it's around the same year as my barenia noumea...which is from 1993.

Thank you, and my apologies to your DH for snatching it up. You both will send assassins for me if I told you how little I paid for it. ☠️☠️☠️[emoji33]

Well, I've seen from 6k-25k. I've seen a 32 HAC for 7.5k. It varies though depending on condition and the particular reseller. (Prices are in USD for reference).

Gorgeous! Congratulations. I wish I knew what new Barenia smells like (mine has pretty much no smell after 20 years). I did try sniffing a couple of the new saddles in FSH a couple of weeks ago to try to get an idea. Security guys where nearby and must have thought I was a complete weirdo!
