Hi fellow TFPer's,
I was wondering if anyone could help ID this beautiful bag? It's been listed on Neiman Marcus as a pre-fall 2013 bag! TIA!![]()

Hi,
This is my first post. Yesterday I won a BV on ebay. I bid for it on impulse as I only saw it 15 minutes before it ended so couldn't get any more info from the seller. I haven't paid for it yet and have asked the seller to send more pics so I can post it in the authentication section. In the meantime can anyone tell me what this is, how old it is and how much it would have originally retailed for. If anyone can point me to another, better pic of the same style bag that would be great. Since winning it I think I've worked out its Marco Polo which means it's coated canvas, right? So the listing wasn't correct calling it embossed leather. I love the colour - it's winter here in Australia so it perfect for the season! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes it's the coated canvas, usually called the Marco Polo collection. I don't think these had style names. It's older than my catalog collection goes so I have no idea what the original retail cost would have been. These were made in the 1990's, although some styles are being made now in the same material. We don't need any more photos-it's authentic.
not all bags have names
in fact only icon bags are supposed to have names
and I con bag is one they reproduce year after year
this bag is beautiful IMO
it is one of the no name bags
Hi Septembersiren,
Thanks so much for you time and input! The only thing I need to decide now is whether or not this seasonal bag is worth $3450. I'm new to BV and haven't owned anything BV, so I'm not exactly sure if the price is justifiable for the craftsmanship and whether or not my this should be my first BV purchase.
Please someone ID this. Thanks in advance

It is indeed Corniola, like s_t_l indicated. Gorgeous color and wonderful stlye!
if it is a seasonal bag then I would grab it
since it is Nero it would take a long time for it to go on sale or show in the after market
you might try bluefly because they discount their bags
it is a beautiful bag
it is extremely classy
reminds me of Grace Kelly or Sophia Loren
i could see them carrying it![]()
It's hard to tell from the photo but this may be one of the BV bags with the super-soft nappa leather. I saw one in the Tyson's store in March (not this style) and the leather was the softest I've ever felt--like silk and butter combined. I don't know how they tan and treat it to get this result but it's amazing.
