Review of Monogram Vernis Rosewood

As part of our effort to keep you informed regarding all things Monogram Vernis, we present a review of one of the latest models in this series. The Monogram Vernis Rosewood, simply put, is an exquisite bag and a fine addition to the collection. Here’s why we say this:

Style

The bag, which is printed in two styles of rich, deep hue (Amarante, Pomme Damour) reminiscent of the namesake wood, is crafted in a unique but simple style. The simplicity helps to accentuate the beauty of the leather itself, and the natural leather cowhide handles and brass details further accentuate the beauty. The Brentwood is a large bag, which makes it perfect for day use as many accessories can be fit inside. It is wider and shallower than it’s compatriot the Monogram Vernis Brentwood – bag that is more traditionally shaped.

Specs

According to Louis Vuitton website, the specifications on this bag are as follows.

  • Size (LxHxD): 5.2" x 5.3" x 12.2"
  • Wide zip opening with a press stud
  • Large interior patch pocket
  • Carried on the shoulder
  • Natural cowhide leather trimmings and adjustable handles
  • Golden brass metallic pieces


Cost

As with all Louis Vuitton bags, the cost is quite high ($970). However, this is a much lower price than similar bags in other lines (like the Monogram Multicolore Beverly at $1830). However, convincing replica Monogram Vernis Rosewood bags can be acquired for around $200.

Overall

The Monogram Vernis Rosewood is simple and majestic. It makes a bold statement without being too flashy. And, as a relatively inexpensive Louis Vuitton bag, it is well worth the cost. This bag would make an excellent addition to any repertoire.
