Hi! I am super new to this, and would really like some help to authenticate this bag that I purchased on Poshmark. A few things I am worrying/obsessing over is how not very soft the leather is, it seems to be a bit "harder" if that makes any sense - and how that it is peeling upwards to reveal a very hard, paint-like consistency (which does not seem to have the same hide/leather underbelly as my other Bottega bag). Sometimes the leather strands seem to be sticking to the layers below or above it and are leaving residue (maybe due to bad storage?).
The serial number tag is also being weirdly stitched, attached somehow to hide the other half of the tag, with numbers that do not look like the pattern that I have been seeing/observing on this forum/elsewhere. The small interior pocket is also lined with fabric, with a stripe at the top part to be the same suede material as of the big compartment. It did not come with care cards or a mirror either.
I really love the color, size, and shape of this bag - but don't have the guts to keep it because of the things that I have been contemplating over, and am so glad to come across this forum. I hope my description of these are clear enough, I would really appreciate the help!

I was able to view the photos from the links provided; this looks good but I would like to see a photo of the engraving on each side of the Knot clasp before I can absolutely confirm. Thanks for the great photos so far.
The numbers on the tag are fine, they belong to a large Veneta from the very early 2000s. I’m just not sure what colour PNN is supposed to be. It almost looks as though the bag has been re-dyed or painted... something. It’s possible it has had the lining replaced and if so, that could account for the authenticity tag reattached.
But! I need to doublecheck a few things first. I’ve never seen writing on the fabric of the zipper before and I’m not sure what that’s all about. I’ll be home later tonight and I’ll have a bit better look at the bag and report back
