I checked on several websites that selling Mulberry items, some websites mentioned specific place where Mulberry items were made. some was kind like imported such as China or Turkey etc.I'm not sure how correct your information is.. I think only SLGs are made in China. There are two big factories in Somerset and I'm fairly sure the most popular styles are made in them, so the Bayswater, Lily and other styles too.
I think the Bayswater is a classic and a great first piece. I do love the Seaton in the mini and micro sizes though.
I’ve got an original Bayswater and the Seaton and just voted for the Bays. I love both bags. The season is a sophisticated looking work bag that is versatile in carrying options and has really useful compartments. The Bayswater just is Mulberry somehow. It’s big and carries every I need and more. Again it’s a really smart work bag but somehow it also dresses down with jeans more readily than the Seaton.
You made a great choice with the zipped Bayswater. It’s a really stylish looking bag and seems practical too. How are you finding it?
