I do see what you are talking about, but I’m in the “it’s handmade so it happens” camp. I’ve also seen MUCH worse. I wouldn’t let it bother me since it’s such a special color and a truly epic find. If you are concerned about authenticating in the future I think most authenticators use other identifying details and something like this wouldn’t factor into the evaluation.

Thanks, that helps! I don’t think I can find another without paying an arm and a leg! And good to know authenticators won’t flag the stitching by itself as defining marker.

Finally pulled the trigger on the classic flap! Wish it wasn’t after the crazy price increase, but hey win some, lose some. I’m in loooove... This is 30 series caviar MIF :smile: I prefer my caviar with a little bit of sheen.
Saw the 20b iridescent white classic flap, and it’s truly special but even my SA didn’t recommend it

Thank you ladies! Quite magical to have bought it on my 30th, a birthday I share with Karl Lagerfeld and you get the iconic bag he designed. Still swooning

@Sylly about the irridiscent white - my SA said the bag will lose its pearly sheen in the long run, it will get scuffed up very easily. Overall very hard to maintain. She also said it was definitely NOT an every day bag and that I will likely not use it as often as I would like to. I gather it’s more a collector’s item than a bag to wear and love. Heard there’s a mini coming in this colour but I didn’t put my name down for it
