The Garda Bag is authentic, IMO. I’m not sure on the colour - looks kind of like Deco Rose or the other colour that was similar (Desert Rose?).
Thank :heart:

Another one :) Does anyone know what model this is and what year?

Hello everyone!
For my first post on this forum I need your advice for my first purchase of a Bottega Venetta bag! I've always wanted a Bottega Venetta bag in Parakeet green. The classic Cassette seems too “simple”, but I had spotted in a store the one with the gold jewelry in fir green, but hadn't bought it because it was not exactly the color I wanted. I saw it second-hand in Parakeet green, which is exactly what I'm looking for! But I'm skeptical because I've never seen this model in a store, and I can't find any trace of it anywhere. It would have been bought in November 2022. Thank you somuch for your help!

Hi guys!! Found this sweet deal at Marshall’s. It’s the BV Cassette Pouch with strap. I noticed there is no fabric tag inside the card slot so I’m wondering if it’s authentic. It would be a shocker if it wasn’t!! I have 30 days to return. I also included a yellow one from eBay for comparison.

Item Name: Bottega Veneta Cassette Pouch with strap
Seller name or ID: local Canadian Marshall’s store
Working Link to pictures: below
Comments: missing fabric tag .. but I checked the same model at Holt Renfrew and they also didn’t have the fabric tag???

Unfortunately, I am unable to authenticate items without authenticity tags. Mostly due to the proliferation of very well made fakes flooding the market. Some may have a microchip inside, and can be read by any SA at a boutique.
 
Hi everyone! I would much appreciate input on the authenticity of this Bottega bag I purchased from C.E.T.T.I.R.E. (sorry, I'm not sure why I can't directly type the name of this boutique but take the periods out!). I normally would not question this store but the smell of this bag really caught me off guard and being my first Bottega leather purchase I have no experience to compare to.

Item name: Bottega Jodie Teen in Fondant
No item #
Seller: C.E.T.T.I.R.E
Link: https://www.*******.com/products/bottega-veneta-teen-jodie-tote-bag-929697963/cmVhY3Rpb24vcHJvZHVjdDpOWFR0NmR6YTJMYU1HTnVNRg==?

Photos of the actual item are attached. Please let me know if I can take any more angles or closeups. It has a pretty strong leather smell that concerns me, but I have zero experience with leather Bottega items beyond a handful of in store try ons. None of my other designer bags have come with this smell.

I tried searching forums to see if Bottega bags or specifically the Jodie have history of smelling this way but didn't turn up much, or I missed it.

Appreciate any insight!
