Hi,

Help authenticate bottega clutch i bought from a private seller. Is the serial number conclusively fake if it's found from another bag of different model?

Purchased this bag on FarFetch. Three times to be exact. Bought one, returned because I saw this glue stain…

Your post doesn’t seem concerned with authenticity; you appear frustrated with the quality (and you’re not alone) so it might be best to post it in the general forum. That said, since you’re not buying gently used, I’d just go to or buy directly from BV so you can get the full benefit of their customer service and find a bag you can feel really good about.

Hi, everyone! Thanks so much for your help! Big BV fan for their shoes, but this is my first bag purchase. Bought from consignment, so not on an auction or online site:

Item Name: BV tote
Seller name or ID: bought consignment
Working Link to pictures: attached
Comments: Seems authentic based on the extensive reading I’ve done here (tag and logo look correct, Larpo branded zipper on the pocket, impeccable craftsmanship and excellent leather


I’m posting here because I’m pretty sure it’s authentic but would like someone to “check my work” to see if I’m getting better at spotting fakes and real haha!

And if it’s authentic looking, I’d *love* to know more about the bag, as it’s a style I’ve not seen frequently.

Someone must have kept this in a hermetically sealed container. It looks to be in pristine condition.
This tote is authentic, IMO :flowers:
It’s about 20 years old.

The “Disco Bag” is authentic, IMO. The listing states brown, but it kind of looks like Quetsche (from 2013) to me. :flowers:

Hi, Can someone help me authenticate this vintage BV cabat from 2005? It seems and feels right, but there is no White id tag number inside. Maybe it fell off.
