Thank you SO much! So happy to know which season this is from. Could the colour be Barolo you think? I'm guessing this is a seasonal design just done for Fall 2007?
No, it wouldn't be Barolo, that colour is much more recent. The Calabria Knot that most people would have seen had (I think?) three colours... I can't say 100% but I think those colours were Scala, Poudre, Corallo and/or Quarzo maybe?
Pre-Daniel Lee, Knot clutches would be produced in either the regular size in Silk (satin) and the stretch knots in Silk Faille in seasonal (spring, pre-Fall, Fall/winter and resort/cruise) colours. Then, there were seasonal knots like the Pontillisme (2010), Butterfly (2013) Calabria (2007) etc. There were usually knots done in Crocodile each season as well. There were also Limited Edition Knots available most seasons like the Galuchat, Enameled, Ottone Antico Karung etc.
This is similar to the Cabats and Venetas that were offered in special treatments for that particular season in addition to the regular seasonal colours.

I want to say Fraise.
I assume it has the one line of numbers on the authenticity tag?
Is there a season engraved on the plaque of the pouch? That would be a bigger clue. :flowers:
Hi V0N - I tried taking a picture of the tag, but it’s almost buried in the seam and I‘d need an extra hand. There’s a single line of numbers on the tag - B02833819M, and this is the plaque. Thanks for your help :smile:

I had a feeling the season was imprinted on the plaque. I’m pretty sure it’s Fraise. It was a Resort 2013/2014 colour that was carried over to Spring 2014 :flowers:
If you take a boo in the reference library and search for Fraise, I think there are pics of the colour and you could see if they match. You did describe it as having a pinkish tinge to it, so I think Fraise is most likely.

Fab, thanks. I had a quick look and Fraise looks very much like my bag. Merry Christmas :flowers:

Thanks so much for sharing! You are a vault of information! I love information about a bag's history & evolution. Thank you, and happy holidays! :loveeyes:

Really hard to say with the studio lighting. It would be easier to tell with better pictures.
That particular bag was usually offered in only one of the seasonal colours each year.
Is it the regular sized one? It looks small for some reason.
I know it came in Sapphire... are there any clues on the authenticity tag?
It says it's the largest size, 15.5"W x 9" D x 12" H. Here is the tag:

The photos are really subdued.
I was gonna say maybe Bluette from 2016 (?) but it looks kinda dull so I thought perhaps Denim but I don't seem to remember when this bag was discontinued and I don't remember seeing it after 2016-ish, so....
Sorry. You might have to enlist your SA at the boutique to help you :flowers:

I'm hotel-ing tonight due to weather, but I might have more info at home. I'll check tomorrow.
