Description:
Barenia leather is sought after and hard to find. It will acquire the nicest patina over time. If you're looking for " perfect " skin, barenia is NOT the leather for you. Barenia is definitely NOT for the faint heart. It's an acquired taste! Unless you wear glove to handle it and just store it inside your closet, anything in barenia will NOT be perfect.
This HAC is Average Used Condition. The barenia leather has some faint fingernail scratches. There's a faint smiley mark under the turnlock caused by swinging cadenas. The corners and bottom piping have rubbed scuffing/wear as shown in close-up pics. Inside lining is clean without stains. Functionally it is very sound and solid. This HAC looks so country and equestrian chic !!
I can't possibly show you every little blemishes. After all, barenia skin is known to have stains or mark after usage if it is un-treated! If any of the cosmetic blemishes bother you, please refrain from buying ! For the fingernail scratches on the barenia, you can rub them lightly with your fingers. The oil on your skin will help blend in the scratches. If you send the HAC to Hermes SPA, the barenia leather will be cleaned and well nourished, most of the time all those scratches will be gone from my experience.
This is definitely a RARE barenia gem. Barenia leather is sought after and nearly impossible to find at Hermes boutique. Please ask your favorite SA at your Hermes boutique about ordering a barenia HAC 32cm- you will know this is indeed a rare gem !!! Get it now or it'll be too late!!
