Gorgeous - I enjoyed following the IG posts and seeing the bag come to life! It looks amazing and hope that you enjoy her in good health!
Oh wow, thanks for the info and great to know! Keep us posted on how you do using the bag. Also, really fantastic coloring!! Do you know how that effect is achieved? (sorry for pelting you with questions!)
Please ask as many questions as you like. I am not sure how the coloring is achieved. He told me the base leather is identical to Hermes Swift and that the terrazzo colorway is his own proprietary design. I think it is really cool and the tones are so neutral that it would pair well with many colors.
TY! It is really a fantastic design and I really love how the colors work together.
I visited the boutique today and saw the new purple Gabrielle pm. It’s very pretty but looks more blue purplish to me. 
My friend sent me this pic she took when we were comparing it to ocean Gabrielle pm and rejane nano 
My bag was delivered. It had a few minor flaws- but not so minor that I’m willing to live with them. As usual, Moynat has had excellent customer service to take care of me. Only time will tell if this particular tote style will be in my possession. I’m beginning to think this tote, in my case, should be called the ‘Oh, Well! Ribbon Tote.’

What was wrong with it?This is distressing, @Sourisbrune. Especially after you said that you asked for such specific photos before they sent, correct?

I was thinking about getting a Gaby in one of the colorways post-Ramesh but now having huge second thoughts. I'm not near a boutique and really don't want a hassle of buying a bag, receiving it and having to return it... sigh.
I completely agree. I am so sorry that this happened. I am in the same situation - far away from an actual boutique and primarily shopping remotely. That is why I decided to pass on another Moynat bag for now and try Peter Nitz instead. I wanted to wait to see how things go post-Ramesh before committing to any new Moynat items. It will be so sad to see everything Ramesh built crumble. I hope this doesn't happen. I think it is very good to give the brand immediate feedback when there are obvious quality issues. They need to know that their loyal customers will not accept inferior workmanship.
I’m glad Moynat understands that the bag doesn’t meet my set standards. If it were a canvas Kate Spade, or a Coach bag, I would’ve said, “oh well.” But, it was over $1K. I just might be more persnickety than most people, but I feel that I know Moynat’s quality- perfection. In my opinion, this didn’t meet my expectations- although I know handmade can mean imperfections. My other Oh! Tote is perfect- the base is flat and even and the piping is even around the whole bag.
Please, don’t be afraid to buy. Im not afraid or nervous to buy again. I‘m hoping the canvas bag thing is a fluke and the leather bags are fine. As a matter of fact, I’m looking forward to seeing Knightly’s/Moynat’s future vision.
Here are some photos of the tote. The side of the base that’s bowed will not straighten. I don’t know if it’s because of stitching or because the canvas is from the end of a roll (dowel) and it’s been trained to stay curved.
In the next photo, where I accidentally wrote the word ‘gown’- I meant ‘go down.’

@Sourisbrune that's really too bad. Either one of those issues IMO are perfectly sufficient reason to reject the bag, but with both on the same bag it's definitely a QC issue.
Puckering trim and a wonky bottom are not acceptable. Handmade does not equal sloppy.
