Authenticate This BOTTEGA VENETA

[indiaink]

Oh I forgot to include the tag ... does it look good as well? Thank you kindly

No, I saw the tag - it looks good.

Oh I think it is not authentic.. I see a few pages earlier in this thread that the same serial number was used. Yikes!

The serial number is fake. It's been used hundreds of times in various new bags - mostly pouches.

Thanks for sharing this!!!!

GREAT catch! Send it back! I’m glad you had a feeling about this bag that caused you to doubt its authenticity. I will have to stand back on the Daniel Lee designs - they are being faked fast and often and early on and we have no way of truly verifying unless the purchase is made from BV directly. That would be my warning to future purchasers.

thanks a lot! I’m constantly shocked at these fakes.

I didn’t end up getting it because I had my suspicions and wanted to confirm .. the buckle on the fake looks shiny while the authentic one from their website looks like aged gold. I have also heard on this forum that entrupy can’t always be trusted. I just wasn’t sure though since there’s no BV boutique in my city so I’ve only gone off pics/videos.

I told the seller and she doubled down and insisted the bag is authentic and her serial number was copied!!

Hi again. I'm continuing looking for Convertible tote with a strap) And I found an interesting listing.A bag looks good, but an authentic tag was cut off.....Is it possible to authenticate Bottega Veneta Convertible Bag without a tag? It's not easy to find a 2nd hand bag to have all options you want and authentic as well

There are one or two things that don't look right, let alone the missing tag ... let's wait for @V0N1B2 to take a look.

Need to see the other side of the authenticity tag please (with the numbers)

The controllato card is meaningless (IMO). Controllato means ‘checked’ in Italian, and I guess it means the item passed quality control/inspection. It might be a Kering thing, I don’t know - Gucci and Balenciaga (and others) have the same paper cards.

Hi! I bought a bottega veneta alumna from a reputable source online but im a bit curious because i couldn’t find the color swatch when i google it. Can anyone help me if an alumna is released in this color? The owner probably bought it in singapore because it came with an SA store card. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

 

[jeune_fille]

The color looks like Quetsche to me.
