Sorry I have to know

which year did Bal stop producing their bags in Cherve leather? Was 2007 their last year? Anyone knows? Sorry if it's been asked before but I can't find any discussion on this. thanks!

Yes, I think you're right... 2007.

I think 2008 was the beginning of agneau ????

Someone please correct me if I am wrong :-|

I think in Fall/Winter 2007 there was a mix of chevre and agneau for that season. In 2008, all bags were agneau and have been since.

^Roey is right - in 2007 they have started using agneau (I know for certain 07 Violet bags have been made in both chevre and agneau) not sure about other colours..

Yup.

Violet and Jaune were produced in both Chevre and Agneau. Confusing eh?

What about Officier?

Is it possible the Officier has come in Chevre and Agneau?

I have an Officier GGH Day, whose tag says Agneau, but honestly - it feels way too soft, and has too close an appearance in texture to my old Tomato Chevre. I've never seen an Agneau like my Officier Day since then, which - since heavy usage, has had no diminishing of its super-glossiness, pillow-fluffiness and major distressing, and I've bought about 12 different Agneau bags since then, never to find another like it.

^^ Nope, Officer is Agneau only.

I know what you mean though.

It's only towards the end of the Chevre era/beginning of the Agneau era that there were "mixtures."

I had a Violet PT that was made of Agneau and Violet MU that was Chevre.

2007 Pine was also in agneau. Not sure if this colour was a mixed of both as well.

That's such interesting news RERE! I didn't know that before....... Thanks for letting us know RERE!

Yup.

Plomb was also produced in both Chevre and Agneau.

 

[MAGJES]

Yup.

That explains my confusion when I saw the beautiful Juane PT that Misty posted recently that listed the leather as agneau!! I was so confused. This is good to know!

Cornflower was from 06 so still chevre.
