The idea from Gerlinde from Lauda-Königshofen:
The colour should be beige and ochre, the size 40cm high and 35 cm wide.
On the outside there should be a small zippered pocket like the bag.
In the inner lining I would also like to have a small key pocket with zipper on the opposite side, two small pockets for
small change or lipstick, etc.
The customer's rating:
Hello Fatma, I like the bag very much I am very satisfied and am happy that the bag is a little bit bigger, than my old bag which was my favorite bag until now. I already did shopping with it today. I would like to thank you very much again that it has worked so well with the order.
best regards from Lauda Von

The story of the Favorite bag:
Negotiation phase
My name is Fatma. I am happy to provide an offer for your request. I have looked at google to confirm the ‘Ochre’ colour you have requested and find is what we call TAN OIL pull-up. I have shared the sample leather for you to consider as well as the screen shot from google. I shall look for beige leather and then share the same with you. Kindly let me know if you are happy with the Ochre colored leather I have shown you so I can share the beige sample which I will find by Tuesday.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards
Fatma
I like the color in the middle the best and to the right of it I would regard it as beige. This is the right color for the shoulder strap also.
The inner color can be light brown that is not so important.
Many greetings from Lauda

Greetings I trust well. I am happy to advise that I have found a wonderful contrast to the ochre color you had indicated you wanted. I have attached the image and put the ochre and the beige together. However I wish to advise that the ochre colour I have found can get dirty very quickly. So I have put for you to consider a gold foil leather ( I have showed it alone and in another image I have put the ochre in the middle of the gold to show that it is not too far apart) Gold and beige will look very lovely also. But I will make for you what you wish. Kindly advise me on how to proceed.

Hello I do not want gold colored leather ochre I like better and with my favorite bag there was no
Problem with the hue .
Gold is for me as jewellery the right shade but I want the bag for daily use.
As decoration I would like G B my Monugramm in a suitable color.
Yours sincerely
Gerlinde

Hi. I have looked everywhere for the leather and only find this combination that matches your color choice ,which I have shown you. If this is okay let me know so I can begin to put for you the costs.
Thank you

I have decided at the three colors on the scale I want the very right color as main color so also the shoulder strap the color in the middle as second color and the letters GB in the color very left.
The rings in brass .
Yours sincerely Gerlinde

Hello Fatma,
I like the colors in the small color samples very much. The orange you suggested I don't like too much.
I would be happy if the colors of the leather in the small color sample are used somewhere in the bag, as I explained already.
Yours sincerely
Gerlinde
Greetings and apologies for the delay. I was trying to find a better match for the colors which I believe I may have found. Please see attached the new leather I found it is Ochre. If you are happy with that for the bottom part of the handbag and can select from the brown ones I have sent earlier to you for the top part we can find common ground. I hope to hear from you soon.
Regards
Fatma
Greetings and apologies for the delay in responding. When sharing with you leather there was an orange background that appeared. This wasn't to be. I have now attached the two leathers we are proposing and will wait to hear from you on the same. With kind regards
Fatma
Hello Fatma the combination on the far right is very nice I would like it.

Greetings I trust well. I was about to make pattern for your bag and wanted to double check on something. Is the bag portrait or landscape? I have put a picture please advise if it is 40 cms high( portrait) or 40 cms long ( landscape)?
Waiting for your confirmation so I can start.
Thanks
Fatma
Hello Fatma
Crosswise 40 cm and high 45 cm where the ochre color should be 15 cm and the beige color 30 cm
I am very happy when it starts because my favorite bag looks already very unattractive because I am happy if
I'll be able to use the new bag soon.
Beautiful greetings from Lauda
From Gerlinde
Greetings from Nairobi. Please see uploaded videos and pictures of the bag. It is lovely. However when engraving the initials for GB, some of the soot from the engraving fell on the bag. We tried to clean as best as we could but there is a stain on the side of the bag that cannot go away. The bottom stain is more noticeable.
Kindly advise me if you would like to have the bag shipped from The pictures I have shared? I look forward to your feedback.
Regards
Fatma
Hello Fatma have watched the video and I am very pleased how beautiful the bag has become, now I am happy
to the day when I can hold the bag in my hands.
Lg Gerlinde
Greetings and thank you for response. The bag is being sent to Berlin by my friend who is traveling on Monday. So you should get it this week God willing.
Kind regards
Fatma
Hello Fatma I am glad that the bag is now ready and I can hold it in my hands soon
even the inside is beautiful to see on the video.i am convinced that i will be very satisfied.
