It was called the Sienna print. I believe that it was called the Sienna large satchel. I have this in the bouvier style and LOVE it. I get compliments every time I carry it.

If anyone could let me if there is any value to this it would be appreciated. The serial number is pretty much worn off . I can see a few of the numbers near the end. Wallet

All your vintage stuff looks fine to me. Most vintage pieces didn't have 'names' as such except for special pieces like the Jackie (named after Jackie O) or the Britt ater Britt Eckland (sorry spelling)
Both your bigger pieces are shoulder bags (you prob know that)

Ah you're so sweet.

But I meant that I need the silver hallmarks that are stamped to show its silver and Gucci.

I think I saw something on the inside of the cuff along with the GUCCI R bit.

You will have to magnify them after you take a pic.

countrygirltu

all your vintage looks ok from your pics.

Agree about Majictrix the names thing.

Doesn't seem to matter with vintage anyway.

We don't really price on here just try our best to authenticate

But I usually see vintage bags go for £60-100 on ebay UK - no idea on US or others

It's nice that you have the original boxes and dust covers

Thank you, are you sure it was the satchel? Lovely, lovely print must look great on the Bouvier and bound to actually hold its value.

on the right (our right looking at it now) there are tiny marks which should be silver stamps to prove that A it's 9.25 silver B the date and C the maker (in this case Gucci)

On fakes - it might still be silver so it might say 9.25 and the other marks will be 'fudged'

or it might just have 'fudged' marks to look they they are stamped silver/date/brand marks to fool the eye.

Gucci marks should be clear.

I'm gonna have to go out now but I will look again later -

hope your not in hurry

ps thanks for bringing this up I'm gonna copy some of this post in the 'authenticity tips thread'

Okay.....so the pics that I attached with the close-ups of the tiny marks (with my latest post) are good? They show the two stamps....one with 925 and another with some other numbers.

I'm not in a hurry - just so happy that you have time to help me out
