Thank you


Genuine, but it's not vintage since it won't be 20 years old for another 12 years, and it's not a wristlet since there's no place to attach a wrist strap. It's some kind of Patchwork Clutch made in 2008 for the Madison line but the "Madison" part is just a guess. I'll see if it's in any of my catalogs.

ETA - nothing in my catalogs but I know I've seen it on their online site years ago.

This is fake, correct? I'm not an expert on these but it looks pretty bad
Seller: pinzou-japan
There were many free items made for the Japanese market that don't have the same level of quality we normally see. I would guess this is one of those. More opinions are welcome.
 
Hello everyone,

I am contemplating on purchasing these 2 vintage coach drawstring bags. Would you terribly mind authenticating them? I greatly appreciate your time, in-depth knowledge and help.

Item: Sonoma Drawstring (I believe) - K6M-4926
Where purchased or how obtained: It is on a Japanese site so I will attached photos instead of a link.

Item: Equestrian Drawstring (I believe) H7D-9804
Where purchased or how obtained: It is on a Japanese site so I will attached photos instead of a link.

Once again, thank you so much for your generousity.


Both are genuine, the red one is a Sonoma Pocket Drawstring from 1996, and the tan one is an Equestrian Drawstring from 1997.

A lot of those inexpensive items were free give-aways included with some Japanese fashion magazines and were never meant to be retail items. I'm pretty sure this is one of them.
