Hello, I was hoping you could help me be more independent and maybe the answers will help others as well.

Is the Burberry Brit Knight different than the Burberry London knight? (Or is this dependent on style of clothes or maybe even the location it is made?) On my retail Burberry London, the knight has a solid rear on the horse and all the Burberry Brit I seem to find on eBay (I don't own any) the Horse rear is striped. (See attached picture from a Brit Polo) is this correct?

I also seem to be finding jackets with this care tag. Is it a legit care tag? I can't seem to upload another picture so here's the eBay.

Item Name: BURBERRY LONDON MENS LARGE 40-42 BLACK SUEDE EFFECT SHORT COAT JACKET
Item Number: 231902667123
Seller ID: andyandjanny
Link: https://www.ebay.ca/ulk/itm/231902667123

You can tell a lot by the fabric - you don't see fakes that are genuine cashmere - can you tell if it is cashmere or not - acrylic has a slippery feel - cashmere feels smooth on your skin for example

Good evening Terite, I finally received the scarf. Would you mind having a look at a few pictures I've taken and let me know what you think?

Grateful for any help :-)

I am happy to help.

The Burberry knight has changed over time. The brand is old (1857).

The blue label that you showed above is appropriate for Burberry London - but anything with that color of tag, means that it is older.

There are many lines - Burberry Brit, London, Golf, Childrens, Prorsum - used to be Burberry sport -

Burberry made in Japan - Blue label, black label.

Then there is the attempt at embroidering on a knight - (as in your polo), these also have changed over time.

It seams like the changes came with each season.

Each burberry sortof has an intended market - eg. PRORSUM is the top of the line, most expensive for example.

I don't see the care tag - but a blue care tag goes with a blue label and these are older items, or possibly blue label items.

Ask again if there was a question I didn't answer

That's very helpful. It makes sense that there are different iterations of the embroidered knight then. Thank you. I really appreciate the kindness you show to every one here.

Is that jacket I posted above in the eBay link authentic? The care label Is white which is throwing me off as its not the standard blue but there are a number of jackets on eBay with that label. It's picture 9 out of 11 in the ad.

I think the black suede effect jacket is an authentic on license jacket - but my guess is that it is vintage and that it might have been made in Japan. The seller has lots of unusual Burberry finds.

My advice is that if you are going to buy a vintage Burberry coat - get one that is Made in England or Italy or Portugal or UK.

Note the unusual placement of the blue label at the neck (the lining is off center), that is an unusual care tag, and the blue label looks like a japan license label with the little curling R's - and the lining seems to be piling.
