Here's a few fast photo I took this am ( one facing east, one west light)- you can see how they vary a bit in the light, but the contrast is there. I don't find them stiff at all- perhaps a bit more than mysore but still quite pliable.
Thanks @nymeria - so interesting! The calvi looks darker, almost more saturated. Is that what it looks like in real life?
 
Yes, I do agree. I think the calvi is just that hint more saturated in real life, even in different lights ( morning, evening, indoors).
For me, its great, as it just highlights the fact that each piece is an individual product, even in the same color, leather and year.
I've got 2 black box as well (1 calvi, 1 bastia) and they are subtly different as well. Wouldn't it be boring if everything was the same? :graucho:

You said it - the handmade individuality is one of my favorite things about H :)
I'd love a box Calvi but my store hasn't had one each time I've been there!
 
Happy to help!

I have never seen vert foncé in person (my google search is worthless - so many crazy variants that bear no resemblance to each other!) so I can't comment on VC's relation to VF.

I feel my bag does indeed look quite similar to @HKsai's full body photo :smile: My VC is green and dark but I suspect VC may be less evergreen/pine toned than you want? It's not blue by any stretch (which many photos make it look) but the green certainly has a blue/cyan rather than yellow undertone. It is a rich color, but I think the perfect word for it is muted... it's not vibrant, it's elegant and understated, it'd doesn't "scream" green, but when worn with black it's obviously green if that makes sense? I would love it even more if it had more of an emerald-y tone like H.com makes it look... I just don't think that's the personality of VC. You'd have to be ok with the muted-ness of it.
I've been told that Vert Foncé is not available anymore and VC was offered to me as an alternative darker green. It's good to know that VC is not blue because that was what I worried about, especially after seeing the picture of the 24/24. I guess I just have to wait until I see it in person and not on a swatch :biggrin:

That is truly confusing but thank you for sharing. The darker green is certainly looking the way that I'd like it to look like :)

@MlleBougainvillier here's a riding-in-cars-with-bags photo of my P18 against black leather. I did not color correct this image (the bag looks slightly more teal than it is) but should at least give you a feel for how different from black VC is in natural light :smile:
Your Picotin looks very lovely and the difference in comparison in black is very visible. Thank you for posting another picture for me. I actually ordered VC in Swift so it might look even more different than the green of your Picotin.
 
That's funny. I put a SO for a B35 in vert cypres swift 2 months ago, and thought I was the only alien wanting a bigger bag and not in togo leather :biggrin:
Maybe our bags will be crafted together, I hope we're getting them soon
That’s really a coincidence. I hope that you are located in Europe as well - maybe your order convinces H to produce some B35 in vert cyprès. I have been waiting since 2019 and started to loose faith. Anyone else wanting to order an SO in vert cyprès in Swift so that @Muffin_Top and I get the our dream bag :blush:?

Have you been waiting since 2019 for your SO to arrive? I guess the pandemic has really slowed everything down obviously. Not that I'm "snazzy" enough to be offered a SO but if I were, I'd jump on the VC/swift train without hesitation!

I put the order in FSH.

Yes, I guess at one point in time I might say yes to any VC in swift that is coming my way :D I hope you will become "snazzy" enough without being snazzy to get the opportunity. Have you thought about asking for a VC bag in swift?

I put the order in FSH.
So we will figure out whether FSH is the store to place a VC order or not :smile: Keeping my fingers crossed for you that your bag arrives soon (and thus also keeping my fingers crossed for me since your order hopefully expedites mine ;))
