All of your bags are beautiful! I’m relatively new to H and love these bags with contrast stitching! Are they typically only SO, or are they produced every season? Apologies if this info is already posted somewhere else, there is so much info here

I really want to do a bi-color K in chevre and was looking for pics of this color and Noisette in chvere. This color is divine and I love the slight reddish tones... I prefer it over Noisette (I think). I couldn't find many good photos at all. If I ever get another opportunity to place a SO, I want to order this color base w/noir chevre sides in K25!!! If you have more pics, feel free to post so I can drool!!! What a beauty and she still looks so beautiful w/age!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm officially obsessed!

I am interested in the contrasting stitches that come with some colour ways by default in Kelly and Birkin bags.
So far the three colours I know are Gold, Etaupe, and Blue Jeans. Can anyone add more? Photos will be great!

Gold, Étoupe, Bleu Jean, Sienne (per above), Étrusque (same, in some leathers at least), Fauve Barenia - all come standard with Naturel stitching. There have been some productions of darker blues with a white/naturel contrast stitch - experts would know more. There are undoubtedly others.

The original issue of Raisin color had Acajou stitching, which was a bit of a contrast, and there was at least one season of Havane in Gulliver with a slight contrast stitch (I think also Acajou) - very pretty.

And of course there are the various limited/special editions with contrast stitch, like So Flash or the more recent Un Point Sur Deux.

Thanks! My Kelly Anemone has a bit of contrast stitch as well, though it doesn't stand out a lot like those of other bags that shown here.

Hi allanrjv! (Do you remember we met in Paris for dinner many years ago?) Anyway, thank you for posting the photos to inform me too of this. I love it! I too just now googled about the leather which prompted a question: veau graine monsieur does not resemble epson to me; looks smoother, but is it a processed leather like epsom I wonder? I guess I should head over to a different thread to learn!!

Hi! It must be another member. I don't remember having dinner with a PFer in Paris. :D
I have only met members in London, Amsterdam, and Milan.
Anyway, the leather is Veau Monsieur. Here's the link for the source of the pics:
