They're currently available in nappa on Barney's website in black and maroon, if I remember correctly. No, it's black and ebano. Blood and violet versions of the nappa are available through the BV "other countries" website.

Sorry no one responded to you. You have probably forgotten you asked us about it. This is from the Marco Polo collection, made in the 1990's. While popular, it's not 100% leather. The stamped design areas (most of the body of the case) is coated canvas, probably with leather handles. I'm not an expert at assessing value, but depending on condition I wouldn't think this case pictured is worth more than $200USD.
9641 was cloth
this color was from spring 2012
9640 has to be close to that color
maybe someone else knows for sure
but because of the tag I know it was not from 2012
my list only goes back to 2007

my very lovely SA and former co worker and I think it might have been a color called white sand
it is definitely before 2007 this color

Thank you Septembersiren and all those who have helped. I have tried yesterday to post this bag and another torrent at the authentication thread as well but the server keeps bouncing back saying it cannot received data on the attachment.
Wanted to reply you when you asked on the links and pictures and I couldn't even reply, pc keeps coming back with same message.
Thank you once again.

This is a BV I just found in a charity shop, where the personnel does not know Bottega Veneta and the brand is very unknown in my country. The bag is obviously very very old, I guess it must be 20-30 years, but extremely well made and the leather is still buttery soft, one would love to sink in it! Do you recognize this bag? The color of the bag is not right in the picture, it is of single plum color and not changing as much as it seems in the photos.

The oldest vintage bags didn't have specific style names. This looks authentic and is probably about 30 years old. These are amazingly soft if they have been stored properly. It has details that were used often back then--the tassel on the zipper pull, the knot on the strap, etc. Maybe some others can offer more information. What a wonderful find!
^ Thank you so much for your reply and kind words, boxermom! 
I am planning of giving this as a gift to my mother, as I know she would love this bag. She is pretty hippie'ish still at the age of 64, and this would fit her amazingly well.

Do you have any estimation, what would be the value of this bag today? Asking, because do not have clue. For me the value is priceless, as it is so lovely
