for some reason I get an errror page. If it has a white authenticity code with groups of numbers, can you tell us the last 4 numbers on the top line? Maybe one of us has it on our color code lists. congrats on the large Veneta--my favorite BV style.

Thank you so much all
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

I've seen these go on ebay for $150-$500+. You describe it in great condition so I'd say the upper range. Sadly, BV's don't hold value as much as I think they should. These vintage bags are wonderful--I have several.

Can anyone tell me what size this is (I think it's a Large based on what I've seen), the color and current retail price

Took pics next to my Celine Luggage as a comparison (I know it can be hard to tell when it's all by itself)

Thank you!

Looks like a large to me. The medium would have a smaller *drop* space. Current retail is $2250 on the large. Not sure on the color. Can you describe the color? Depending on the light, could it be Ebano?

I don't know what device you're viewing this on, but on my iPad the color is almost true to life, but on my iPhone it looks exactly the same as it did IRL. I'd probably describe the color as a shade of Bordeaux (I think some designers call this color 'Raisin')

ETA: I looked up 'Ebano' and I don't think that's it - it looks too purple or pink.

I am so pleased with myself - finally got my 'work' tote, in my favorite Cervo leather. Now, I need some ID on this beautiful thing ... does it have an official name? Any deets I don't have about this beauty, including original MSRP, would be greatly appreciated. resents

OK, I'm on my large monitor and I can see that. Do you have a white tag with the older code on it or is this a new one that doesn't have a color code? I'll have to browse my catalogs to find a similar color.

Is it a couple years old? It reminds me of the color Opera.

I don't think it has a name. It's similar to a braided handle cervo tote that I have in this color with the same band of weaving near the top. Color is Glacier/Galazio. If the price was close to mine, it was about $1400. I can't find it in any catalog. Mine has the same blue lining which was done for spring/summer 2008.

Thank you. I've been looking for an open tote forever - so pleased Yoogi's Closet posted this one -

Unfortunately, it didn't come with the white tag -- I'm pretty sure it's a newer bag though and not too old. It's one of my TJMaxx finds! Most of the bags they've been getting are pretty current though (I think the oldest I've seen aren't more than a year)

So there's nothing inside the zippered pocket? How strange. Did you get a great deal? I live far enough away from a runway TJ Maxx that it's not real simple to drive there and check out the designer bags... So I must live vicariously
