Hi All,
I'm looking at buying this bottega at auction but I can't see it in person before hand so just seeing if I could get some feedback. Its from a reputable auction house that I've bought an authetic Givenchy from before but all I have to go on is the following:
"A VINTAGE LONG STRAP BAG BY BOTTEGA VENETA
Styled in tan Intrecciato leather, 19.5 x 26 x 5cm. "
I just haven't been able to find any other example online that matches. The price guide is about right for a small vintage bag going off past sales on Therealreal but I just would like to see at least one other example of it out in the wild to be sure that its authentic. Has anyone else come across this particular style with the top clasp rather than a zip? Also any idea of what year it might be from? It looks like a possible precursor to the messenger but the straps don't match.
Its exactly what I've been looking for and most likely will get anyway bit would be good to know first! Thanks in advance!

I think it was called the Leggero Shoulder Bag. There was also a satchel/tote. The colour might be New Red, I think? and it's from the same season as Walnut (whenever that was, I can't remember - Fall 2013?)
'Course, Leggero probably only referred to the lightweight calfskin, but there's a place for you to start...

Thank you so much!! I just purchased it last night, and I’m so excited! The red looks amazing...at least I hope!
I have received the Large Cervo Loop that was kindly authenticated by VON:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Authentic-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
This bag has no hint of "red wine" color as stated in the the title of the auction. Its definitely on the brown color spectrum. I called BV in SF but the woman who answered my call, after taking a while to check the serial number, said it was China Red. She was not familiar with the Large Cervo Loop, and asked me several times to describe the shape to her. Here are some pictures I just took - inside and outside, although its around 6pm here so not too bright of daylight. I wonder if someone here can ID the color? Many Thanks!

It looks like Corot, but it could also maybe be Byzantine, although I have never seen either of those colours in Cervo, and Cervo colours tand to take the dye a little differently.
With these new tags, and without anyone knowing when an item was purchased or from where... it’s a mystery that only Bottega Veneta can answer with any certainty.
Thank you. I didn't even think of asking BV directly but I just chatted with them and they confirmed it is Corot. Good eye!It looks like Corot, but it could also maybe be Byzantine, although I have never seen either of those colours in Cervo, and Cervo colours tand to take the dye a little differently.

Hello! I’m having this authenticated in the other thread, but hoping someone would know what color it’s supposed to be? I used to have a zippy card case that looked similar, but I can’t remember the name. Uluru?
TIA!!!
TIA!!!
Guessing a colour under studio lighting is notoriously difficult. If I had to make my best guess, I would say Burnt Red from... I can’t remember offhand (I’m at work so I’m going off memory)... 2015? It’s the same season as the Nappa Glimmer line and also same year as the tri-colour Cabat that @grietje bought that season.
It’s not Blood, and it doesn’t look like Vesuvio, New Red, or China Red. (nor do I think it could be)
Hope that helps a little bit

Yes, thank you! I will do a search for Burnt Red and see... it does look a little orangey to me, so that makes sense!
