My Massai via Yahoo Japan Auction. I'm satisfied that the colour is Gris Tourterelle as described but would love confirmation that it's Taurillon Clemence please? I know a lot of Massai were made with Togo but I think the graining is big enough to be Clemence? It's just not overly slouchy. Thank you!

Hi everyone :biggrin: my mum purchased this beautiful Birkin from VC and the colour was not known by the seller. The stamp is square M (2009, I believe). Does anyone know the colour/leather?

TIA!

The top shot makes me think Gris Tourterelle as I see my Massai in real life, but the second shot is similar to my shot here on my post, so a bit deceptive.

That looks like Clemence to me. Love a Massai!

I bought this lovely Kelly in brand new condition. Stamp D square. I can’t tell what color or leather. I don’t think it’s Togo…. Does Ardennes have veining? Here’s some photos …. I’m th jing etrusque Ardennes

Hi All - I saw a sold listing on TRR , and they listed an item as "grey swift leather." Does anyone know what color this might be? Wonder if maybe Etoupe, Gris Tourterelle, or I might not even be close...? Many thanks!

Etoupe has white/naturel stitching. I'm not sure about Gris Tourterelle but Gris Asphalte is a possibility. It depends on the date stamp.
