There is no sure-fire way to tell without pix, but I understand with this style, photos would be just about impossible. Honestly, how many fakers would even bother to make a fake replica of this? They will go for the bigger ticket items. I would guess it's real, but again, no way to be certain.

if so get a pic of the tag

Although we can't tell style or color from the code on the new tags, the tag itself looks authentic.

Comments: Should Bottega Veneta be stamped on the ends of the knot, should I request picture of this? Do you know, is this the natural pattern on the lizard skin, are the little circular patterns additional embossing? Thank you, BV experts!

I got the bag but when I compared the leather with my campana, it doesn't feel as soft. I had my campana for many years while the belly looks new. Does the leather feel stiffer when it's newer? The seller said she kept it in her wardrobe for some time. Appreciate if anyone can advise.

it will soften with use
some dyes make the nappa stiffer than others
and you say your campana is older so it has softened up considerably with use
In my experience Ebano bags tend to be the softest for some reason

I am not an expert on exotic skins, so someone else will have to help you with your last question. But, yes, *Bottega Veneta* should be stamped on the ends of the knot clasp ends. And I would ask for that photo. We don't have a lot to examine with Knots--no authenticity tags or zippers! This is beautiful and I see no warning signs.
authentic
I think the color is fluo pink but not sure about that I think they came out in 2010

Would you kindly authenticate this Aquilone, please? Against my better judgement I purchased this bag before getting it authenticated by you lovely ladies. I received the bag yesterday and the extra pics are mine. I can't seem to find any engraving on the hardware other than the back of the zipper so please let me know where to look for those if they are needed.
