I can't figure out if I want the natural or the chestnut in the florentine. The natural looks almost orange at times while the chestnut seems dark brown with a red tint. Has anyone here gotten either of these colors in florentine and, if so, can you tell me what the colors truly are like? Thanks!

I have both chestnut and natural Florentine bags.
The chestnut is a deep warm brown.
The natural is like a butterscotch that patinas with time, to a darker butterscotch.
Love them both, but prefer the natural.

I own a Florentine, in natural. It is beautiful! I have used it heavily (I like to take it with me when I travel). It keeps developing its own personality. Here is a picture next to a paper bag. Hopefully it will give you a better idea of its color.

InStitches,
I have had the Florentine domed leather satchel in natural color in the larger size the past four years. The natural is very rich, holding its color well. It is is a traditional color, not like you think as in a typical brown or tan. It goes very well with browns, tans, jeans, and olives. I think if a person thinks of herself as a Dooney Girl, then owning a Dooney in a natural color is a MUST. It is very Italian. Hope this reply helps. I do not have a bag in chestnut.

@rrpell I have the same bag. I guess I was wrong with the butterscotch description.
It's much more of a caramel. Thanks for the pic !

I have the chestnut color, it is a very rich reddish brown. I like the darker colors of Florentine, because I don't like the bag showing dirty marks, and the natural one shows dirty marks especially on the handles. I have black, navy, Bordeaux, denim, chestnut and grey. Love the Florentine, it's the best!

I like the natural better. I have satchels in natural, chestnut and TMoro. Chestnut is my least favorite of the three.
