In June last year I made a request for a Kelly 28, Sellier in Vert Jade, Vert Vertigo or a dark green. Because of Sellier I assumed Epsom as the leather. I like Epsom.
In November I saw a Kelly in black box leather on display. But on closer inspection I saw that it was dark green (Vert Fonce). Wow!!! That was a real dream bag!
Yesterday I had an appointment to try on a pair of shoes. After that was done, my SA spoke to me about my request. I immediately thought that he was now telling me that it wouldn't work and that the request had been cancelled.
Instead he asked again exactly about the shades of green and finally said: I might have something for you. But it's very special and not to everyone's taste.
OMG. My first thought was that he wanted to offer me an exotic leather and I immediately made it clear that that was out of the question.
No, it wouldn't be. He told me to take a look at it, but he was also very excited because I might not like it.
So we moved to a quieter place (the boutique was packed). He opened the dust bag and when I saw the handle I knew immediately that it was Vert Fonce in Box. My soul left my body for a brief moment. Never in my dreams did I think I would one day call such a beautiful bag my own.
Today I can't stop looking at it and touching it. I am so happy.
Here it is: artificial light, inside and in the sunshine.
