Good morning! Please authenticate, it seems legit to me but the back of the brass snap things on the handle are silver (nickle?) and do not say D&B, additionally the ducks face on the back seems a bit off compared to what I am used to. Thank you!

It's authentic. The backs of the fasteners varied over the years; not all of them were stamped Dooney Bourke. The same is true for the leather duck emblems...there were subtle changes over the years. The stamping pressure and type of leather used could affect the appearance too.

Can someone please authenticate this Dooney & Bourke bag?
From GW...I'm stumped for a name or any other info...tried horsekeeping.com, ebay and google...nada!DSCF3407.JPG DSCF3408.JPG DSCF3409.JPG DSCF3410.JPG DSCF3411.JPG DSCF3412.JPG DSCF3413.JPG DSCF3414.JPG DSCF3415.JPG
Approx. 11"w x 9"h x 4"d. Straps drop 8.5" to stitched attachments.
Any and all info is much appreciated...Thanks in advance!
 
Hello! Would someone be able to authenticate this for me please?

Name: Possibly the Dillen satchel, but I'm not positive. Listing just called it a domed satchel.

I already purchased it, and after I received it I realized I probably should I have checked with you ladies first. I have looked all over online and I have found similar bags, but none with this particular type of texture on the outside. It's similar to the LV Epi leather bags.

Thank you so much in advance! This is my first time posting so I apologize if I have made any errors.

I'm not an expert.... but this is not Dillen leather. The style of the domed satchel with the 2 front zipper pockets has be used in the Dillen collection, and in other Dooney collections. I have a Dooney tote style handbag is this textured leather, but I can't remember the name of the collection. Mine handbag also has the light vachetta trim. I will say that the textured leather wears extremely well. Enjoy your new handbag.
