Really excited to finally being the proud owner of a Moynat bag! Josephine PM purchased yesterday from the boutique in Mount St. London. I went up for my birthday, wasn’t exactly supposed to buy a bag but I’ve been admiring them for a while and once I saw it in person it was love! Had a lovely time at the boutique too, we were shown all the vintage pieces they have and given a glass of champagne to celebrate :yahoo:

Simply gorgeous!
 
Thank you so much! You are right! Really loving my Oh Tote — it’s so lightweight and carefree! The open top worried me in the beginning (reason I have a Goyard Artois, but that’s another story...now I realize their canvas is plasticky compared to Moynat. And don’t get me started on the strap rubber glue (?) that melts in humidity!) but I just put a scarf on top to have a bit more privacy and security :heart: I am really enjoying the Oh Tote and can’t wait for my third Moynat...will have to think it through :love::blush:

I am feeling a bit better after a couple of days of rest, thank you so much :blush::flowers:
I agree. All other coated canvas totes feel strange, after experiencing Moynat quality canvas. I’m coming up on a hundred days straight of use. I’ll take a photo. It’s almost like new. The straps have a little bit of creasing above the O part, but that’s it. No worries about the leather straps at all. The sealant is still perfect.

Perfection!:love:
 
Also I have a question for anyone that’s owned a Moynat with a perle calfskin lining for a little while please. It’s incredibly soft and a very pale colour so I used a light coloured (H) dustbag inside it to protect it but after two days out so far I still managed to get a few slightly grubby marks on the interior, I’ve absolutely no idea how! How are yours wearing? And do you use a bag liner? Thank you!

The lining is going to get darker no matter how careful you are. I am super picky about the inside of my bags but the light color and matte finish of the perle leather does result in darkening over time. But you will get used to it. I use an insert with all of my bags. Honestly I prefer the orange goat leather they use in the Danse but that's me. On the upside the perle lining will feel even more amazing to the touch as it ages.

And congrats on your beautiful Joesphine!

Ah that’s great, thank you! I wasn’t sure if it would eventually patina anyway, which is fine by me! I should probably just use it and not worry, but it’s so new, pale and pretty! I looked at the Danse and it’s gorgeous but I was concerned about the exterior being fragile on the one I saw. The leather on the Josephine feels similar to Togo / Clemence maybe slightly softer than Togo so hopefully reasonably hard wearing.

Yes the Taurillon Blush leather is very similar to Togo/Clemence - sort of right in the middle sheen/squish-wise IMO. You have a bag that will be a lovely workhorse!

Would love to see your photo soon, thank you!

For me, it seems to be the perfect size for daily use. A pm Josephine was next on my list but now I’ve added pm Gaby and pm Danse too :amuse: This black calfskin Danse with the cognac handle really caught my eye and I liked the way it looked arm carried. It doesn’t look like anything I already own so that’s good justification to buy right?? :angel:
