Hi again. Bottega says like this about the tag:I don’t know what to tell you. It is an edition of 500 ONLY. Not 1026.
(or an edition of 250 for a mini and 1000 for a large). Authentic Cabat plaque;

”Like this” = metal engraved plate on the pouch made for the Cabat.Hi again. Bottega says like this about the tag:
Ok Thanks. But the other pic I sent of a tag with same number is from vestiaire collective. So glad I at least only have one replica”Like this” = metal engraved plate on the pouch made for the Cabat.
The fact of this matter: You have a replica (I guess you have two replicas) and there is no way around it.
Any Cabat with a pouch that has the engraved plate that is not as it has been described by @V0N1B2 and many, many others over the history of this thread and this forum has a replica and/or counterfeit bag.
Please do your research here before making any future purchases.
Thank you for your time.
ETA: Looking at the photos you’ve also provided of the bag itself - the quality is obviously lacking, and the white tag is missing (they don’t ‘fall off’; they could be cut off, but they don’t fall. Off. Ever. This might be a good opportunity for you to peruse this forum and familiarize yourself with the quality of Bottega Veneta.)
Authentic! Very unique bag. There should be a white tag inside the zippered pouch that could provide more info as to the color code, year, etc. if you can take a peek and provide photo.Apologies for not following the format, but I got my bag from The RealReal and their photos are not helpful. Would appreciate input and am happy to take more photos. It is an Eyelet/Grommet medium Veneta and what I am unsure of is the zipper pouch that is connected to the interior by a leather tie. I think it’s because the usual clearance to attach a lining pocket is missing with the placement of the grommets.

F/W 2005 - in the color "Naturale".
Authentic - I will defer to @V0N1B2 as to the meaning of the embossed star on the tag, if you are curious. She'll probably also know the color.Hi, I would love if you could please authenticate this large Veneta I View attachment 5421972View attachment 5421972View attachment 5421972just bought from Vestiaire Collective. Thanks in advance!
Awesome! Thank you for all the info. I have been lucky with bag authenticity and condition thus far from TRR, appreciate your help.F/W 2005 - in the color "Naturale".
ETA: I knew I'd think of the name eventually - this style was known as the Rivet Veneta - and at least one color was a seasonal special edition. See this post: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...l-special-one-pics-only.818447/#post-24626708
Thank you, yes! I was wondering.about the embossing and the name of tbe colour! And how to resd these sorts of tags..Authentic - I will defer to @V0N1B2 as to the meaning of the embossed star on the tag, if you are curious. She'll probably also know the color.
