Hello!

Could somebody please authenticate my bags? I've had them for a few months and never even knew they made fakes.

I've bought them on the Dutch version of eBay called Marktplaats and vinted.

First one: pocket purse (I think) not sure what the colour is called.
Size: 24x17x6cm approximately.

Second one: court bag in mahogany (I think)
Size: 25x20x9 cm approximately

Both came without hangtags.

Thanks in advance!

Both are genuine. We'd need to see the first one with the flap open so we can look at the pocket under the flap to know if it's a Pocket Purse.

The second one is a Court Bag from 1997.

Dear authenticators, request to authenticate please. Thank you!!!
Item: Willis (from 1997?)
Where purchased or how obtained: thrift store
Comments: Dimensions are 8" height, 10" width, a little over 3" depth. The straps seem to have extra holes punched (done nicely) 5 are towards the edge of the strap, spaced evenly, then a space of about 2 1/2" and then 5 more holes spaced further apart than the previous 5 holes (about 2"). The plate on the underside of the turn lock is indeed flat, no indentations although it looks like it might due to the fact that it is tarnished. Geez! Pardon the upside down and side wards photos. I haven't figured out why that it happening.

Hello! I am an eBay seller and was hoping to authenticate this bag received as a donation to our thrift store) before posting. I believe it is a vintage Berkeley saddle crossbody bag, just wanted to be sure as there is no creed and only a small coach stamp on the inner pocket. I know this could mean it is a 1960s/1970s bag but just wanted to double check! Thank you so much, let me know if more pictures are needed!View attachment 4884654View attachment 4884655View attachment 4884656View attachment 4884657View attachment 4884658View attachment 4884659View attachment 4884660View attachment 4884661

It's an authentic crescent bag 9235, not a Berkeley saddle bag. It was probably made in the mid 70s.

So the green one has a "creed" as I believe its called and I saw the code come up online but still not sure. The other bag has no creed in the bag. Any information is greatly appreciated.

Sorry, they were found in a garage sale and the green measures roughly 9-9.5" long with a height of 5-5." and a width of an inch to 2.5 inches wide at the bottom. The grey measures 8.5" long by 5 inches high and a width of 1.5". Is there anything else I am missing here?
