Authenticate This BURBERRY

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.

I wanted to clarify that I am not at all opposed to any location of production for any other Burberry items -

(except for specific vintage items that used a Burberry licence but made some poorer quality items - ie made in Japan vintage bags etc.)
 
hi - I'd be ever so appreciative if you are able to please authenticate this wallet for me - I am not sure of it's name and not sure where to look for the serial number so if someone can tell me that would be awesome and I can add that photo!

Item Name (if you know it): Unknown
Link (if available): Not Applicable
Photos:

- all exterior
Front

Back
exterior zipper pull


- interior


- interior Burberry, made in, and serial stamps/tags

(Can anyone help me to find where the serial stamp/tag would be inside this?)

- engraving on hardware


So - it is a haymarket check wallet and the serial number will be in one of the card slots.

I haven't checked with anyone yet, received it yesterday afternoon. But it feels authentic to me :-)

Train yourself in no time to tell the difference between acrylic and cashmere in NO TIME. Acrylic has a slippery/almost greasy feel - cashmere feels soft and luxurious.

It looks like cashmere to me also.

Thank you! I think I know what you mean tho. I have a vintage made in England Trench and a more recent Made in China trench and the quality is not even comparable.

So the Burberry's label switched to the blue Burberry London label in 2000? Do you know when they switched to the I guess white/cream colored Burberry London label?

Ok, so to be clear - it is the vintage made in Japan items that I comment on = poorly made - Burberry did some strange licensing deals in the past.

The name was Burberry, then Burberrys, then back to Burberry and I think it was 1998.

The beige labels - when did they start - I don't know - 2005/6? - does anyone remember?

Hi Terite: Believe it or not, I found this at a salvation army store this AM. If you could help take a look for me, it will be very fantastic. BUT, if this is not permissible, I will also understand :D . As per pictures, the only tag is the burberry tag. Thank you very much.
p/s: The dimensions are 12 inches x 86 inches and the material feels like wool.
