I believe Bababebi’s opinions include identifying the color…..

Indeed, Bababebi was very professional in her services. Her opinion was Rouge Grenat and had flagged out to me that the bag could have been re-dyed...But the 'dye stains' on the pics were only shadows and reflections of my window curtains. I am still waiting for Bababebi's reply to see if there is a need to make any amendment to the color in the authenticity report. I just hope the seller has not lied about re-dyeing the bag. I would not be able to bring it for Hermes bag spa :sad:

Yikes! I very much hope that you aren’t dealing with an unscrupulous seller; there might be circumstances where you would choose to purchase a re-dyed bag (I don’t think I would) but it’s always preferable to know all of the relevant facts beforehand. Good luck with your research :flowers:

I just checked my mini Lindy and I believe the interior is swift

thank you so much for your response! I also thought of it as swift but here’s the weird part, my lindy is in etoupe and so is my swift toolbox but my swift toolbox feels and looks very different from my lindy’s base. I’m not saying it isn’t swift but it keeps me wondering lol

hm, I’m not 100% sure it is swift but the leather grain (gold in the picture below) looks and feels extremely similar to my swift mini roulis (mauve sylvestre in the picture below). My mini Lindy is in clemence, maybe different leathers have different interior leathers?

I have been searching hi and low for answers but to no avail. May I ask if anyone can ID the color of this K32 in swift leather? It's a stamp X (Year 2016) bag. Already authenticated by Bababebi, and seller said it has not been re-dyed. But I need some honest opinions please...TIA!

That's not Swift. I think it's Tadelakt. In Rouge Vif.

ETA: See I got scooped! LOL.

A tad confused… didn’t you say (in an earlier post the other day) that Bababebi had already indicated the color as rouge granat? Did she change her mind?

There was an issue with the appearance of the Kelly in the photos which made color identification difficult. It was cleared up and we came to the right answer. Tadelakt and Rouge Vif.

Does anyone know what the name of this bag is? I was looking for a different Toile bag and this popped up, but no name. Thank you!

The closure and structure is a lot like that of the Tsako, and when I did a Google image search for "Hermes vintage leather and toile Tsako shoulder bag" I got this hit from Leland Little Auctions. They are calling it Natural Barenia Leather and Toile Tsako Bag, Hermès.

Thank you. This is where I actually found the bag, but I don't think it's the name as it is very similar to a Task, but not quite. Thank you for looking into it though!!
