Hello, please help with authentification - thank you!

Item Name: BV woven creme crossbody bag
Seller name or ID: private seller

This has been storage for a number of years. There's BV card with what looks like a price tagView attachment 5364258View attachment 5364260View attachment 5364258View attachment 5364260View attachment 5364261View attachment 5364267View attachment 5364258. It has a dust bag as well.

Authentic vintage; this appears to be a perfect 'time capsule', approximately from the mid-80s.

Wow...thanks so much for the quick reply! My mother left me BAGS of these in different colors! My only concern is that I didn't see a serial number and if I try to resell I wanted to have a comeback for why. Thanks again!

Check inside the zippered pocket; in later years a authenticity tag was sewn into the seam of that pocket. BV doesn’t really have “serial“ numbers, per se, more model/color numbers, that sort of thing.

Will do - this makes so much sense now. I've had a couple of these bags vetted by an online vintage shop already and they weren't concerned about the serial number. It really helps answer buyer questions. Thanks again.

This is my first BV purchase. I'm thinking of getting Ball Hobo Bag. I'm not sure if this is authentic. Help!

Hi guys.
I’m new here.
I live in tokyo and started to collect bottega bags.
I now have 3. I bought one a few month ago on an online resell shop and I’m a bit suspicious that this chain belt bag could be fake…the serial number tag looks a little bit different in color and material then my other two. Also stamp is different and it’s not placed in the centre…

please help
