Can you please help me with this purse, pouch and fob? They are at a thrift store. I haven't seen the icon on the purse's dongle, or on the fob before; I've only ever seen the duck. There are no tags inside, just the leather "Dooney&Bourke" badge. The Zip pouch doesn't have any markings on the outside or zipper pull (zipper pull is YKK) and only a "Made in China" label on the inside. The pouches lining is black and white woven canvas. Pictures of the pouch and fob to follow.
The bag is fake. I'd like to see a better picture of the pouch and the interior. The keychain is good.
The second bag - not sure of the style name

View attachment 4049468

Both are authentic, but I don't have the style names in my files.
I believe the second one is called a stretch slouch.
 
Hi! I recently picked up this bag in a thrift shop and I was wondering if anyone could please tell me if it’s genuine? I can’t find a bag style name so it’s very hard to research. :sad: I don’t see “Dooney & Bourke” on the brass anywhere, which concerns me.

It's an authentic bucket bag. I believe that one was made for QVC.

Inside there is a small attached cell phone holder (for an older smaller cell) and a leather placard that says Dooney & Bourke and Made in Italy, Would you be so kind to let me know if this is authentic or not? Thank you.
 
Bought these two tassel Minis (Made in Italy) on Ebay a couple of month ago. I believe they are Authentic (especially the dark brown). Anyone can ID what collection are they from? Are they Amazon, Caiman or ? (can't remember the third one). Thanks a bunch!!! Will Upload Brown First, then Eggshell.

Please wait for @BeenBurned to confirm authenticity. There are slight differences in the serial number spacing and fonts on the sewn-in tags, and the zipper pulls are different.

The alligator patterned bags were from the Bayou collection.

They're both authentic.

I have difficulty knowing the difference between Nile and Bayou. Both are croc-embossed but I believe that Bayou "squares" are smaller.

The following are a couple of my examples.

In my notes, I have this as Nile:
