Thank you! You have just helped me saving a thousand dollars! It looks skeptical for me too but I've never seen a fake bella before. I was too optimistic that perhaps it was a vintage bella style [emoji29]I don't believe this bag is authentic.
Sorry

You love the Belly style! I think it's Rust but I'm not positive. As for authenticity, things looks good to me but I always defer to our resident authenticators. I just saw your name pop up and thought 'I wonder if she found a pretty Belly...'
Thank you for the info! I looked at some of the Reference photos and it does seem like it could be Rust. 
Hello!
Could someone please help in authenticating this bag?
Here is the information:
Bottega Veneta Elephant Gray Hobo
Listing Number 112136981055
Seller Name: pilaupilau

It did not have a photo of the authenticity label but I purchased the bag anyways. I received it today and the label does not look right or make sense and the font is off. It's also really papery and thin. Color on the label is 2040 which does not make sense, correct? I have attached two photos of the label. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi lovely BV forum members Can you kindly authenticate this Nero medium Veneta for me? I bought it as an unused brand-new piece from the previous owner. I feel that it has all the right features of a genuine BV. What nags me is that after about 8 uses, it remains very stiff. I also bought another brand new medium Veneta in petale thereafter from an online reseller which peddlers authentic stuff and I found that this Nero bag is heavier - to be precise some 100g heavier. The leather seems a bit rough with more visible grains.That got me really bothered as I don't like the idea of carrying a fake BV.
Attached are the photos and I tried to capture one which hopefully shows the grains. I will post more photos if it is helpful. Thanks tons in advance for any guidance.
I omitted to add that the leather has a sheen that I don't see in my other BVs.
Thanks !
Can you provide some more clear photos of the weave on the edges, that go around the bag and up the handle? And a better close-up of the heat stamp.
I'm looking at the weave on the edges of the bag and something looks off - how is it with this bag compared to the Petale bag?
