Wow, thanks for the quick reply.

I see there are 3 types of the same bag. Different size and tag style (one piece vs riveted). Are these seasonal changes?

Tourmaline. I emailed BG before about this one and that's what they told me.

One is the small messenger, the other is the large messenger; that's all. The last two photos are the same just photographed at a different angle.

I looked at all my pillow bags just now and here's what I've found:

Solid color nappa (from BV boutique) a few months ago: Riveted tag style
Ayers nappa (from BV boutique) a few months ago: One piece tag
Ayers nappa bought in Europe 2014: One piece tag
Solid color nappa large pillow (from BV boutique) a few years ago: One piece tag

So maybe it's a new thing on solid-colored nappa small pillow? As for size, all my small pillow bags measure the same (approx. 9.5" x 6.5") and this matches the details provided by BV on their official website.

You've got an exotic skin involved on the Ayers bags, so that one's different. I had a nappa small messenger (pillow) and it had the riveted tag.
 
Thanks for all the responses, very helpful! This would be her Mother's Day gift.

Meant to post this as the 3rd variance:

It has the riveted tag, but with the 7x11 size, which should be an one-piece tag.
So I'm looking at:

1) 9x7 rivet - tourmaline
2) 7x11 one piece - ebano
3) 7x11 one piece - nero (same as above)
4) 7x11 rivet - new light grey

I think the above 4 are all small. From my quick search, large has MSRP $2000 (discontinued?) and measures 10x14. Otherwise, BG's $1450 would be a steal!

Large:

So are we saying there are/ were 3 sizes of pillow bags? 7"x9", 7"x 11" and 10"x14"? The last being now discontinued. So the small and large referred to are the first 2 dimensions?
I have seen both the 9" and 11" lengths but only separately at different times and places, so got a bit confused with the sizing and thinking I had misjudged the small size.
To differentiate, the 10"x 14" referred to as a maxi pillow?? Mine is definitely the 10" x 14"
 
Right, I just called BG and the maxi pillow sounded like the one the salesperson said is twice the size of the standard.

So, priced at $1450 are 2 sizes of standard - 7x9 and 7x11
The maxi is $2000 - 10x14
