Thanks. HA, I don't! The Cognac Ostrich is starting to Patina and I'm ok with the color it will be taking on. The Parchemin.....let's just say I tried (and failed) to get the twilly tying down. For one thing, I haven't been satisfied with any of the colors so far (bought, then sold). I don't like white against the parchemin. Had some in my cart to buy but they are now OOS. Also, I'm not really a twilly girl (am trying to change that). Might just have to suck it up and plan to have handles replaced down the road. FYI I purchased that bag in 2015, and although I use it only infrequently it's holding up quite nicely.love the ostrich b's. how do you keep the handles pristine?![]()
Thank you so much!You have such a beautiful collection![]()
ah I see. magic eraser then. "very light" is noted.Thanks. HA, I don't! The Cognac Ostrich is starting to Patina and I'm ok with the color it will be taking on.

Note: I did discover that a VERY light use of a magic eraser on the handles (or any other part of the bag) will easily remove staining. VERY light!
Thank you. If/when that bag darkens I will embrace it. That one is from 2009? Was originally my mom’s but she didn’t carry it muchah I see. magic eraser then. "very light" is noted.because I had this idea that ostrich handles darken at the slightest touch. and most of the ostrich H bags I've seen on the preloved market have very dark handles compared with the rest of the bag. so I thought they were inevitable.
your cognac ostrich is the one I prefer. very rich color![]()

Thank you! Yes it's Fjord, 2011! My absolute workhorse. Needs some spa as front inner pocket is starting to come unstitched. Otherwise it's nearly indestructable.Wonderful collection! Is your black Birkin a Fjord? Love the lines running throughout it. Also, love your BVs that were included in the family photos!
I use a white, soft, rubber artist's eraser on light leather, even untreated vachetta, to remove marks. Go slowly, use a light touch.Thanks. HA, I don't!
