I don't think the Roulis comes in Swift. They're mostly in Evercolor, which is similar to Swift but not quite as soft and has bit of grains. And the Roulis mostly come with permabrass hardware, not ghw. I've seen the Etain permabrass Roulis and it's absolutely beautiful. Had to turn it down as it was too similar to my Chanel reissue gray flap.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge :) I appreciate it.

Hi Roulis lovers!! I've been patiently waiting for a mini in the perfect color and they're just now starting to come out. I had asked for Toffee or Natural Sable with permabrass hardware. My SA found one in the stunning Natural Sable with palladium hardware.

I wear rose gold jewelry and a watch with a stainless steel face and barenia strap. I can't tell if the silver of the hardware will be too much for me or not, since I'm preferential to the lighter gold of permabrass for this bag. I do think it looks very beautiful with the natural yellow/gold looking leather and silver hardware though. Any thoughts or advice? I'm not even sure that the Natural Sable would come with permabrass.

Congrats on being offered such a beautiful bag...Roulis is gorgeous!! I have one in vache natural (similar color to sable) with PHW and also wear lots of rose gold jewelry. In my opinion, the PHW does not detract because the warmth of the actual leather connects so well to the jewelry. Hopefully that makes sense! If you like the bag I would go for it as they are few and far between. At least that's what I was told in Paris last summer [emoji4] Can't wait to see her if you get her...please share pix so we can admire!

Thank you so much for your input cavluv and lanit!!! Incredibly helpful. ITA that the warmth of the leather will help connect with my jewelry. I feel the same way about my new Faubourg Barenia B. I never considered GHW for that bag because of the warmth of the leather.

My SA is ordering the bag in for me so I'll report back on whether or not I take it! I believe that the leather is Vache Natural and the color is Natural Sable, just like TankerToad's beautiful Roulis, only mine is the mini.

If it is natural sable, my guess is the leather could also be Butler...which we have seen in some Constances lately. What a lovely leather! Very smooth and elegant! So nice of your SA to order one in for you to check out before you decide. I think you're going to love it!!

One last question for you! How is color transfer on your Natural Sable bag? My SA said it's considered a lighter color so I want to be sure it's up for daily wear!
