Authenticate This BOTTEGA VENETA

[V0N1B2]

V0N1B2, I'm terribly sorry to ask for your opinion with only two photos, but the seller can't take any more at the moment and he also couldn't find the white tag. So I thought I'd just run this by you in case it's an obvious fake. TIA!

The heatstamp looks fine but I mean... need to see a lot more to make a decision.
The white tag is sewn into the pocket, can't miss it if you unzip the pocket and feel for the side seam.
I'm familiar with the bag, its Cervo from 2008-ish but I need to see a lot more than a heatstamp.

Thank you so much! I'll post proper pictures when the seller sends them.

Hi there! Could you authenticate these two bags, please? I'm consider buying them, but I'm not familiar with this brand. thanks in advance!

1. Crossbody. A seller claims it's a vintage item from 80-90s. I'm in love with this bag and I'm happy to buy it, but I don't want to spoil my impression buying a fake....


2. Satchel. This baby is from my local market and I didn't find something similar on the Internet.

I found another one!) Please, help to authenticate it.

The Ash Scuro Convertible Bag is authentic, IMO

I can't say, sorry. I've never seen a style like this before, and without a heatstamp I can't accurately say if it's authentic or not. The white authenticity tag is real, but I can't confirm the style number, so I couldn't say whether it actually belongs to this bag or not. It looks authentic, but a "feeling" isn't good enough for me, you know?

Thank you soooo much for your help! I've already bought the blue/purple vintage one and thinking about Convert tote, but it doesn't have a strap.... I will post the pictures when I get the bag. I'm impressed by your knowledge and the amount of useful information in this blog

Hi ladies! Could you help me again, please to authenticate a bag? There are so many bags that I can't decide what to choose
I found BV Roma and I really like how it's organised, so maybe the bag I'm looking for)
I added the photos below. Is it authentic?

There is no stamp inside. A seller told me that it's an old bag and you can see a stam in new versions of this bag.
Also, It looks like an inside pocket has a cotton like lining, not suede. So, the pocket lining is different from other lining in the bag. It's a bit strange for me....Especially, if compare it with Tod's for example....

Looks like a Ferro Roma from 2007.
Romas don't have a suede-lined pocket.
Heatstamp should be where shown. No heatstamp = not authentic

Not all BV bags are lined with suede, and not all come with a mirror.

ETA: Bags designed for men’s lines are generally lined in cotton (or material other than suede), as well as some made for the outlet or that went to outlet.

Does BV still include the leather backed mirror on all the woven bags?
