This H shop doesn’t let you see the bags unfortunately. I’ve been on a hunt for blue electrique forever! Anemone is so gorgeous too. I took the anemone because I’m not sure how long it’ll be around for. Bleu royal is pretty but I can wait for another blue like blue electrique or blue zellige. Hope I made the right choice. It was so hard to say no to mini K though haha
An absolute fantasy come to life...a vision of past longings and future satisfaction. Elated for you!
Congrats on this stunning beauty!! You are correct that this leather is not for everyone despite it being sooooo beautiful!! It's good to know that you are so ready to welcome this baby so enjoy her in good health!! We all try to take care of our bags and sometimes thing like battle scars are bound to happen which comes with normal wear and tear! Better to bring her out then to keep her at home without being appreciated!
Nothing as exciting as special leathers or HTF colors, but very happy to have K28 Sellier Gold with GHW be available for me! It wasn’t technically a surprise offer, I don’t think, since I texted my SA a few days before my appointment to pick up an order that I was hoping I’d be able to get my K before Christmas…
She knew my preference for neutrals or dark colors only, no hardware preference and that I wanted a 28 or 32. I did say that I preferred Retourne to Sellier. I was actually quite surprised when she surprised me with this availability for that visit/appointment, I was thinking it would be closer to Christmas. I was a little iffy on the Sellier, thinking it would be too boxy, but it’s actually perfect and not as “formal” as I thought Sellier would look and feel. A 32 would probably have been too big in Sellier for me, so am glad I got the 28!
I still want a Retourne sometime in the future, now wondering if a 32 would be too big…

I completely agree. Some almost feel bad or pressured to like this leather given it is ‘hard to get’ ‘heritage leather’ and perceived as ‘are they missing out?’ but it is just an individual taste . I mean box can be fussy, completely unsuitable for quick in and out grab to-go bags and countries with unpredictable weather- it IS going to be unsuitable for some.
For some lifestyles, epsom or Togo would work better and that’s totally fine. I would imagine that’s the reason H makes a variety of leathers and I get as excited about my friend’s epsom bag simply because she loves epsom leather.
Thank you all for sharing my joy, and I only decided to purchase it after discussions with many a fellow kind TPF members who were so generous with their knowledge .
Back to topic- also offered mini Kelly charm but can’t quite bite the bullet with cost.

Congratulations on your bag, a classic beauty! I have a sellier 28 and a retourne 28, perfect size in my opinion.
I would not say that at all. Gold isn't necessarily easy to come by, and it's very desirable, especially with GHW.
Yes, it really is! I was thinking a softer retourne style in 32 would be ok as well, but I’m really liking the 28!
I know that QBs in general aren’t easy to come by, but I thought the neutrals were more “common”… I guess I thought people were more after the pretty pastels (I’d stain it just by looking at it!) and special leathers. And while I would have been happy with PHW, I absolutely love the Gold with GHW! I just received my insert and can’t wait to finally wear it!I would not say that at all. Gold isn't necessarily easy to come by, and it's very desirable, especially with GHW.
