The color, called t'moro, is a rich, deep dark brown with a touch of burgundy; just perfect for fall and winter. The size is smaller than I usually carry but I can find everything by just peaking inside the purse. So many pockets for a smallish handbag.  You won't believe the quality and strength of the zipper. Light weight, too. This bag has no imperfections, it is sewn cleanly and accurately and the leather is without blemish. Love this bag.
