Thank you for sharing! The lighting makes a huge difference...lit up Malachite has a beautiful color, but may be too dark for me otherwise like in your family pic (still beautiful)...VV may have that brighter pop. But in your close up Malachite looks to die for! These kind of thoughts add to my hand up haha. Thank you again!

If you want a bright fun green that goes with everything that is Vertigo! I love malachite to death, but it is a jewel tone and more subtle. The answer is clearly both!

My malachite 35B (I don't know why my photos turn sideways when I post them here):
I think that malachite works better for me than a brighter, more grass green. H makes the best greens.

Haha no worries about the sideways!
See this is so beautiful, but looks similar to me as the Novillo in Vert Vertigo posted before...that's why I'm confused which one I should try to hunt downHaha no worries about the sideways!
While not outside/in direct sun, the room is pretty bright.
Hmm, see I should consider that. If I think about it...I would be wearing the bag outside, so if it is look like this with light, Malachite may actually be bright enough for me...the shade of green is just stunning. Is yours Togo?
I have a Togo Malachite Birkin and a Vert Vertigo Ostrich Birkin. They are totally different greens. Malachite is a blue green color while VV is Emerald green. VV is hard to photograph because iPhones and point and shoots somehow add in a blue tone to VV but it is really dark Emerald, no blue, no yellow. Just grass green. Both are neutrals interestingly. VV is a pop neutral while Malachite is quiet though. My Malachite is a 35 and my ostrich is a 30. To me, Malachite looks better with Palladium hardware because of its cool bluish tone while the dramatic VV looks better with gold. Now you’re probably more confused than ever. Both are beautiful but online photos seem to represent Malachite much more accurately IMO. VV is also one of those colors that is radically different in sunlight than other lighting.

More eye candy and comparisons. I really think each of these colors can look like any of the other colors in the right leather, lighting, and dye batch.
