It’s the Memory Cabat in Shock from Resort 2012
Authenticate This BOTTEGA VENETA
- Thread starter jburgh
- Start date
This is authentic - all the parts are in place and the metal stamping is right on, as is the weave.
Of course it is, I was so gobsmacked at the beauty I forgot to answer that part. Lucky friends, hmmm!!!It’s the Memory Cabat in Shock from Resort 2012
Isn't this a Cervo Illusion Tote? Because the leather doesn't look like Cervo to me. Or metallic. Maybe you could post the underside of the zipper?
This smooth leather version was available at Neiman Marcus and Overstock. Odd, I know. Did not get good reviews on Allwomentalk, either, for whatever reason. There's no year tied into any of these mentions. In your encyclopedic knowledge, perhaps you can dig up if there was a special version made for NM that eventually made its way to Overstock?

Thanks so much for your guidance and expertise! You're a diamond! I was anxious it was not authentic as the size is very slightly bigger than current knots in stores. Do you think the red knot I purchased is from a specific production year or an earlier version?
In terms of a black BV card with gold writing please see below photos of my gold sandals purchased from MyTheresa earlier this year with it's BV card (flash makes it look brown) and dark grey knot my friend purchased from MyTheresa this week with the same dark BV card.
What's your opinion in terms of why the colour and style of BV cards are different e.g. brown or black? Or is it just something that changed over time for the brand?

They could have changed the color of the print
Everything evolves
I do not authenticate knot bags
OK, I’m calling this one: I was wrong about it- the lack of ‘made in Italy’, no tag, and this zipper all add up to not authentic. I don’t know what NM and Overstock had, since we can’t see the stamp and zipper on those.
Oh...shame...ok, many thanks again for looking into this for me!

Comments: in my excitement, I bought this and forgot to have it authenticated by you kind ladies first. However, since I have 30 days to return, Please still help if possible. I have attached two photos of the logos and 2 pics of the zipper pull here. Due to the size and the location, I tried for ten minutes and could not get a picture of the back of the zipper without risking destroying or damaging the item. Thank you so much!!! Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
