Hey all:idea:
Ladies, who remember the color/year of this bag? Who have it/has it? What do you think about it?
I’m tempted but not sure completely it’s my type/size.
Thanks!

I'm en route to Seattle with crap wifi so I'll take a closer look when I get there.
However, the bag is a relatively new style so my colour guesses would be either Violet, Mona Lisa, or Byzantine.
My money is on Byzantine though from Fall/Winter 2015 (I think, from memory) :flowers:

Picked up my NLG cervo hobo and it's a lovely shade of grey but not one that says "light grey" in my mind. Not charcoal by any means but not light grey either. I'll try to posts pics tomorrow, too dark tonight!

New Light Grey isn't really that light. Not like a (Balenciaga) Argento or anything.
I look forward to more pics. :flowers:

Hello, I'm considering this bag, can anyone please identify the year/season and color of this bag? I've searched the forum and find very few mentions on this Brick bag, what are your opinions/experience of this model? Very appreciate your inputs!

Looks like Tangerine from Spring 2014 (or might have been Cruise/Resort 2013/2014?)
The Intrecciato Brick Bag tends to fold in on itself when it isn't stuffed. I have the Cervo version and it is much more "puddly" than the Intrecciato Nappa version, but this bag still doesn't completely hold the shape as photographed when filled with everyday items. :flowers:

V0N thank you! I actually like it to be slouchy and soft... :smile:

Agree with our Von that it looks like Tangerine. I had a Tangerine Bella. It’s a vibrant happy orange and very saturated. So much so that the dye results in the leather having a more matte finish. Not dry, just no luster. Over time, it softened nicely but it didn’t develop a sheen that other BV colors do.

As for the style, this looks like the smaller brick. The regular size brick is large and quite heavy (in the woven leather that is). I bought one and owned it for about 30 minutes. Stunning bag but way too heavy for me so I sent it back. I think the smaller size is better weight wise and for day to day day use.

Good insight on the color sheen, very useful to know. I have a Bordeaux Veneta with this soft glow, which I love so much.

Regarding the size, the info is 34*24*17cm, so it is not particularly small.... . Somehow very limited pictures/info of this model available, mostly about the Cervo version. Thanks gals, appreciate your thoughts! :smile:

Here she is, almost impossible to get the actual shade. This is close, she might be a tad lighter IRL. But you can't get any greyer than this bag :lol:, nothing but flat out grey, no blue, no brown, no green, nothing but grey.
