Hi guys...quick q.... what is the difference between the kelly casaque and the kelly. I always assumed casaque is the dual panelled appearance. But people have posted just a single piece front kelly as a casaque. Just wanted clarification. Thanks in advance.

Also I was just offered the Kelly II Sellier Mini casaque in the Rouge Coeur/Rose Extreme and Bleu Zanzibar with PHW. Will post it once I receive it. We are still in lockdown so they have to courier it.
There is the Casaque design with bi- colour front panel, it comes in both mini Kelly II and other size Kellys. There are different color combos of this design/ version.

Then there is Rouge Casaque which is a red which the leathers are dyes in. Many consider it one of the true reds used by Hermes. Amongst others it comes in Epsom and Chevre. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much. I thought that was the main difference. Much appreciated!!!
 
I did my SO for a MKII in chèvre leather. I always loved the texture and glossy look of it - furthermore, the color I went for the outside, is usually proposed in epsom so I thought, why not, will definitely look nice and hopefully one of a kind ;-)

I've placed it a couple of weeks ago, so we'll have to wait to see the outcome.
I did mine in verso, so I went with Blue Brume (chèvre) for the outside, Lime for the inside and contrasting stitches in gris Clair which looked tone on tone with the shade of Brume.

Thanks, I went with something completely different than what I had planned in the beginning.

Picked up my SO last night!
Chevre Mysore Magnolia with Gris Perle interior and stitching.

Its gorgeous, congrats! Perhaps mugenprincess can tell us how long she waited approximately before her SO arrived?
 
Finally unboxed the mini casaque…lol
