    Thanks for the feedback Celestine - I know this thread is quite enticing. I find its the only one on MSE I look at now - which is not very money-saving!! But it is fun.

    Yes that Cathryn is a great bargain by the looks of it.

    Caved in and ordered a lacquer black erasto! Now £35.65!
    Does anyone who has this finish know if they are washable like the usual finish??
    Thanks!

    Caved in too! Ordered the Gracey in Black Lacquer to put away for my daughter for Christmas and the Yelina B wallet. £35.04 for the two :D

    I a bit unsure about the black Lacquer, so hoping its ok.

    I too have just caved in and ordered the Cathryn from Amazon. I hope it's ok too. If not it will go in the prezzie box.

    Well must admit I thought I would love the lacquer as I like patent etc but had the red a while ago and didn't like it. Mind you I expect the black looks better as some reds can be a bit cheap looking.

    :)

    I had a black lacquer Defea & disliked the 'blue' lining.
    But I see the Gracey has a gorgeous white patterned lining :T

    I do like the shiny ones, my ideal colour would be silver - I lovingly fondled one in HoF once :o

    When I bought the black lacquer hubei some time ago I wasn't keen at all and gave it to DD. But I have just bartered it back from her as now I am used to it I really like it.

    Oh yes I forgot I'd had a silver one - didn't really like that either much - reminded me of 60s spacesuits!! But saying that it would match my silver sandals!!

    Personally I think I'd just wipe it as it shouldn't really need washing. Think I'd be afraid to put it in the machine but by hand should be ok. I've even washed leather bags before now.
