As a lover of luxury leathers, I am so glad you got this piece! It is beautiful! Also, while you may need to be more careful with it, the good news is that this type of leather is more easily cleaned and serviced professionally, so if you do get a scratch or minor water damage, they can do more for it than they could with a scratch on a sellier or some other leathers. The darkening comes naturally, so be prepared for it and maybe have it serviced occasionally like a pair of good shoes you get polished. The color will change over time, but if you care for it and service it on occasion, it will become an even more beautiful piece that artisan leather connoisseurs will appreciate, especially with the imperfections. (So walking around NYC, you will get noticed not just for the Birkin, but your fine taste because that leather is special regardless of the maker and gets noticed.)
Thank you for your comment!!! The more I use my B25 the more that I am in love with it. For sure this is one of my favorite bag and the leather is super luxurious. Thanks for watching!!!! 💕
Hi Soojineee!!!! Thank you so much!!!! She really is stunning and I just can't keep my eyes off her haha 🤣 😂 Absolutely, I will be doing videos as the bag patinas over time!!! Thanks for watching! 🥰🥰🥰
Hi Renee!!!! Thank you so much!!!! The leather is unique but nothing too crazy as an exotic. Perhaps if I can get use to taking care of this kind of leather then maybe I would want an exotic in the future hahah 🤣🙈 Thank you for watching! 💕
Congratulations! Your bag is absolutely stunning--I think it will look amazing dressed up with an all white or cream outfit and equally as gorgeous dressed down with jeans. I absolutely love the contrast stitching. I was also fortunate to get a C18 offer at my local boutique last June--was my first H offer and considered a quota bag here in Canada. I'm hopeful 2023 will bring a B25 my way, but as we all know, the bag choses us! What is meant to be will be 😀. Congrats again!!
Hi Jennifer!!!! Thanks for your comment!!! You are absolutely right!!! This bag do go well with my cream color outfit and as well as dressing down in navy blue. Congrats on you C18 last year!!! What color is the C18? I wish you all the best for this year with the B25 in Canada!!!! I love how you say "what is meant to be will be" Hahaha 😂 Thanks for watching! 💕
@@mrsyhjourney My C18 is actually really similar to your C23--it's nata with GHW, but chevre leather--like you I am also a PHW lover but you can't beat the combo of nata and GHW ;-)
Hi KK!!! I am planning to document how this bag patinas over time!!! Will definitely give you guys the inside scoop!!!! Thanks for watching!!!! I can't keep my eyes off from her.... haha 😂 Thanks for watching! 💕
Congrats again on your beautiful new bag!! Do share how it patinas over time! I turned down a K28 in Barenia as I"m too afraid of the Patina, but would love to see how yours develops over time! Happy CNY and enjoy your new bag!!
Hi Clara, Thank you so much! I am definitely going to document how this bag will patina over time!!!! At first I was very concern, but I also think how cool it is to own a bag that will show its character over time. Thanks for watching and Happy Chinese New Year to you too!!!!! I am so glad this video is out and now I can finally use this bag!!!! haha 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Janice!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Couldn't let this one pass because it is heritage leather!!!!! This leather smell really nice as well!!!! Thanks for watching! 💕
Hey Mrs Y, I have this leather in a B30. It is beautiful, you will love it. It is such a rich tone and it ages so well. Will be interested to see how you like it
Hi Sarah!!!! Oh wow we share the same bag in different size!!!! 🤩 You are correct, the richness of the color with the contrast stitching just melt my heart!!!! I am so glad to hear that it ages well. How long have you had your B30? Thank you for sharing your comment with me! 💕
@@mrsyhjourney I have had mine for 2 years now but the date stamp is from 2017 and was pre loved so it has patina’ed nicely. It’s really good with water but the first time you get it wet it is frightening because the water looks like dark spots, but they disappear very quickly and don’t show water marks
I have this leather in a B35 with palladium hardware that I got in December 2018. I’ve used it once and it got a small mark that was darker. I took it to the Hermes spa and they couldn’t get it out. 😞 My purse has gotten darker since I got it, but the mark is still noticeable.
Hi Miss Y!!! OH NO!!!! 😱 I am so sorry to hear that. Did you know what caused the dark spot? I hope you are still enjoying the bag despite the spot. Perhaps you can be more care free with the bag now. Thanks for watching! 💕
@@mrsyhjourney I don’t know what caused it. 😞 Since I got the spot, I haven’t used it. The pandemic, having two kids now and working from home I barley go out.
@@missy1761 That must be more upsetting when you don't even know when and how it happen. 😩 I hear you, but I hope you will create chances for you to use the bag in the future... Perhaps date night with your hubby haha 😄
I got the exact same bag in Paris in Sept 22 but with palladium hardware..I had never heard of Barenia Faughbourg till I was offered..I have to say I was disappointed when I got that instead of togo that I had researched:) I’m hoping I’ll love it as it patinas. I do like the distict leather smell it has.
Interesting! Does it smell different from Togo or epsom? Those two smell the same to me and both smell not that great... I don't get why people go gaga over hermes smell.... they don't smell that great to me...
I have BF bag as well. The water is not the problem as water stains will come right off once it dries. It’s the grease you need to be careful of. If you get grease on it put baking soda on it and let it sit for an hour or so and repeat. It will come right off. And then I use a soft cloth with water to wipe it and it comes off. The first time I took it out I splashed coffee over it and used water to wipe the stain off and after it dried you can’t see anything. I really like the leather
Thank you for your detail comment and sharing with me your experience with Barenia Faubourg leather. I totally agree with you that this leather would be sensitive to any kind of oil/grease. Wow you actually used baking soda on your Hermes bag 🤯 you are so braved haha 🤣 Thanks for sharing again! 💕
Beautiful! Congrats dear! 👏🏼
Thank you!!!! 🥰

So so very happy for you 🧡
Hi Lisa!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Deeply in love with my new B25. Thanks for watching! 💕
I have three Barenia Faubourg bags (Picotin and same B as you), and water is ok, it’s oil that isn’t. If you get oil on it, just use corn starch.
Oh Wow, I guess you are a big fan of Barenia Faubourg leather... 🤣 Thanks for your tips!!!!💕
@@mrsyhjourney yes, I love it 😂
She’s beautiful!! I would love to see how it patinas over time. Hoping to see it in future videos. Congrats! 🤎🤎🤎
