I thought it'd be Glicine. But now I'm wondering if it's Desert Rose.
Did you note the lower price? It's on the BV site as well for that price.
And ruh-roh Diane, the denim Cervo Loop is there....

I did notice the lower price. I saw the denim color when I got the glicine pillow but I'm still hoping that a glicine cabat will appear in the future. I'm going to get drunk on the margaritas that Vons bartender is mixing up and wait it out. Or at least try my best..... it never occurred to me that it could be a desert rose....

If you look at the knots on the website now
All the knots are the same
They are all aligned with the opening
This is one of the reasons I don't like to authenticate knot bags
All the knots I have handled in the past have had the knot the knot aligning with the opening [emoji253]

I agree, the majority of Knots will always have the ends of the knot facing towards the sides of the bag. I have seen many Croc Knots with the the knot tilted slightly to the side, the Taipei Knot (SS2010 in Tejus) has the knot sideways, as does the Metallic Mineral Knot from FW2009 and the Multistone Beaded Knot from FW 2008. Having said that, the majority of Knot Clutches with the knots tilted or sideways have not been on straight up, regular silk, satin or faille. They've been exotics or special seasonal knots.
If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that there is never any hard or fast rule when it comes to Bottega Veneta. What they choose to do for one season, they don't do for the next. I can be frustrating, that's for sure.

This is why I have always said the only way to know you are absolutely buying authentic BV is if you get it in the BV store
