Having had an Empire (blue) Cervo Hobo (I found it too bright in the end, and went with a China blue instead) I would bet money that this is Empire. Empire blue has a unique glow to it... very nice!

It might be Electrique too. It's not bright enough to be Signal Blue and Bluette, the most recent version of this shade, is a hair softer. Empire, IMO, had a dustier quality and the teeniest hint of teal in it.
My 2 cents - it seems that leather has that old style sheen and most probably comes from the pre lavato era 
Hopefully we'll get a photo of the back side of the white tag soon, but in the meantime, I finally found a photo of my Empire Cervo, along with the link to my reveal of same. Showing your photo first, pio, then mine.

Thank you for the pictures! It really does look like Empire. I'm still waiting to hear back from the store. And of course since I'm waiting for them forever, one of their promos expired.
Just wanted to update that this bag is from The Real Real and they have been unable to locate the tag inside the bag. They also failed to disclose all the flaws on their site. And when responding to me, they somehow managed to forward me another buyer's questions, including their name, who was also asking about this bag. I'm going to pass on it.
That's too bad - it's a lovely bag, too bad Real Real is dropping the ball on this. Cervo Hobos always deserve a good home!
I would like help identifying a bag I bought at the BB Factory Outlet in Florence in 2008. It's a dark brown top handle with gold chain and buckle detail, and a pale pink suede lining. The model no is 169754, leather is VACAO and the color code is 2040. There is a hole punched in the tag which I believe is because it was sold at the Factory Outlet. I'm interested in selling this but would like to know what the bag is called and if there is a way to determine value. Thanks!
This is an Ebano (brown) satchel from the Resort 2006 season, done in the Catena treatment. We do not provide values. Check eBay for prices on similar items.
It looks like a Nero Tornabuoni Large Satchel/Boston Bag from Fall/Winter 2009, but the interior authenticity tag will confirm that.
It is as Von says
In our store we affectionately called it the butterfly bag because of the way it opened

It's from the Men's Spring/Summer 2012 collection. It's washed Cervo I imagine. Can't help with colours tonight - maybe tomorrow.View attachment 3697306 View attachment 3697305
I am curious about this bag and will be happy to find out the year/model/Colorthe website claims that it is calf.
