My Birthday Barenia Fauve Sellier K32 PHW, this was an HG that I didn’t even feel comfortable calling my HG because I never thought it was a possibility for me. I’m obsessed, hence the OTT photo styling

So stunning! I have a Barenia K28 retourne that I adore but the sellier with the additional contrast stitching just makes me melt! Wish I had held out for one.

Lol I actually felt the exact same way about the retourne for a moment. I love love love my sellier now but I saw a picture of one of Grace Kelly’s original Kellys and the Barenia retourne vibes were overwhelmingly beautiful. But I think that’s the nature of H, there are so many similar and stunning bags that it’s only natural to question our sartorial decisions every now and thenDE8D8D26-4F7E-4439-9301-58E07B0FDA8C.jpeg

I didn’t realize one of Grace Kelly’s bags was barenia. Thanks for posting this!

Thank you:amuse:I've only had her for two weeks and I already carry her more than my B30 and my other K. It's just the most perfect bag lol I'm still in shock, being able to rub out the scratches is such a godsend. I really hope your Barenia B40 finds its way to you!

Sounds like she’s perfect for you. Yes Barenia/natural calf is amazing with scratches and I am certain that she will age amazingly.

Finger crossed for my B40. [emoji8]

Oh my gosh you're too kind!! The patina looks a bit more even in photos than it does in real life ( two spots on the flap and the front of the bag are slightly darker than the rest) but overall I'm in love with the hue it's taken on. I've been wearing her day in and and day out and I've noticed that this particular Kelly attracts attention far more than my other H bags. Barenia is so special! I couldn't love her more, I'm sure your B will age beautifully. I actually wouldn't mind adding a Barenia B25 to my collection one day :heart:

I’m under the impression that Grace Kelly’s bag is box calf
