Could just be a change made for the Japanese market, like the brown and white Cow keychains instead of black and white like the ones sold in the US. Yellow Calla Lilies symbolize joy and change in Japan, I coudn't find a meaning for the white ones.
Thanks for responding so quickly. I was in a panic. I was hoping it was a Japanese exclusive.
 
Could someone please authenticate this Coach bag?
From GW…lots of navy bags recently!
Approx. 10.25"w. x 9.5"h x 3.5"d. Handle 3" to rings. Sadly no shoulder strap, but I have a navy Baxter that can share.
1998 Willis #9927, right? Thanks in advance!

Yes, authentic and 1998 Wilis
And this Coach belt?
Also GW…
Approx 1.125"w. #6300
Thanks in advance - again - for any info :)
It looks fine.

Belts don't have names other than "leather" and "signature," at least afaik. I have no idea of the age.
 
I would appreciate help with 4 (!) authentications from a thrifting haul. Thank you so much in advance!

All look good. The first is a Convertible clutch 9635. It was Made in NYC like it says on the creed. Just for fun, see if you can find any anchors on the strap clips.
I've seen other bags where the back of the pocket looks like that Weston. I don't think it is anything to worry about.

Fantastic! Thank you, thank you for all that you do! And I found the anchors :D How cool!
 
Hi, I was hoping someone could help me authenticate this bag, as I've never seen the camo print in this style before. Thank you in advance! :smile1:


ITEM: Rare Ltd Edition COACH Mad Camo Floral Print Hobo Crossbody Handbag purse NWT! (Retail $358; Serial # L1373-28322)

LISTING#: eBay item number: 191804428685

SELLER: kidden2

LINK: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Ltd-Ed...428685?hash=item2ca86f518d:g:GFIAAOSw~OVWvQYm

Google found it on the Coach Japan site, "Madison Camouflage Print Fabric Hobo":
http://japan.coach.com/disp/CSfGoodsPage_001.jsp?GOODS_NO=12113

That doesn't prove the one in the listing is genuine, but there aren't any photos of known genuine examples for comparison to authenticate. Interesting that the retail price on the tag shown in the listing specifies "USD" for US Dollars, I assume. I've never seen that before. I wish the seller would have shown the entire inside of the price tag.

Agreed; very interesting about the tag. She did state that the bag was purchased from Nordstrom's, but I had never seen this particular style before during the Coach Madison "camo" days. In any case, thank you so much for your valuable time and input, Hyacinth. I truly appreciate it! :smile1:
