I understand all of you ladies out here who were talking about old, good leather....and all I had was new Alexa in Oak...thinking - what could that old good leather be ? Why is Alexa which looks amazing so "less good " than good old ????
I FOUND OUT !
I placed my bid for an OLD, Darwin oak Bays which was so beaten up, with twisted flap, one handle lost rigidness at the bottom, darkened handles...but there was something in the photos, like some old treasure was screaming form the pics. I payed and waited and waited thinking that I might have made a mistake
today I GOT IT !!!
OMG !!!! It is soooooooooooo amazing. Old, 6 years old, worn Bays is by far my favourite.
I bought two newer style Mulberry bags, sludge bays and sludge large E/W bays, and yes - they are amazing suede and all, but this one has SOUL, it has lived, it has so much more to live, I believe for generations, it will only get better with age
I now fuly understand it !!!! I was avoiding all Target threads, shiny leopard, sparkly tweed and was looking for the REAL Mulberry. If this is the real Mulberry, then I understand where they are going, they will lose lots of customers. Ebay will be the only place for good old Mulberry. They might become priceless.
I am at work and will post pics as soon as I can.
