Although after googling, magma looks a lot more orange than red. Uh-oh. Oh well. I guess I have an orangey Baby Bag on the way, not red. Sigh.
It is one of BV's 'chameleon' colors, as you've noticed by the photo, but yes, the tone is tends to more orange than blue, so it's not a true red. I had a magma Cervo hobo a while back, and eventually let it go because of that 'tone'. Just too much happiness! :smile1:

I'm sure I'll love it anyway, but I was hoping for a truer red. I guess the hunt continues. Thank you for your help!
 
Thanks for the reply I thought it may be Edoardo as it does seem a little bit lighter than the Ebano photos I've seen but it's so hard to tell. I'm not familiar with Junior, when I've searched for it I've only found boots. Did BV make this bag in junior? When I start looking at colours it reminds me of 'The Dress' - definitely blue & black in my book!
 
I'm not sure about Junior either. I thought that sometimes BV gives a different name to the same colour for men's products. Not that your bag is men's, I didn't mean that. Junior might have been one of those. I don't even know if it was called Junior or Edoardo Junior. Ack! BV and their stoopid new tags! :pout:

* LOL, that dress was totally blue and black!
 
Hi!
I'm looking at two red venetas. One says 6305 (eclipse?). The other says 6200 (Appia?).

My question is: what is the difference in these two reds? Is there a picture of them both together?

Thanks so much

ETA: I found this posted by TDL

Brique (brick) - slightly dark to medium matte red with hints of sienna, orange so it's mostly in the warm family compared to previous BV "dark/brick reds" like Eclipse, Pourpre, etc. which are cooler tones."

What is the color code for Brique?
:wacko::wacko: too many questions, so sorry.

It mentions "China" and "Ink" so I got a little confused. Thank you for the clarification.

Follow-up question: Is this style the only one that gets the purple lining?
I haven't seen the purple lining in another style, but that doesn't mean anything. The other Cervo Hobo that you'll see the purple lining is the Billiardo green one. I've had the pleasure of owning both ;)
