Hello. I found this bag at a yard sale. I can’t find one like it. There is no tag inside except one that does say Made in China. The stitching is yellow though.

Hi, I'm new here! Any help is much appreciated.
I recently got this bag from online store "thread up" and I'm suspicious it may be a fake. It does have a tag with serial number(which looks like it may have been poorly seen in by someone), but the quality just doesn't feel like what I'm used to from other Dooney bags. Can anyone give me a clue as to if this seems legit or not? Thanks!

So far, I don't see anything that indicates it's not authentic but I also can't say it's authentic YET. I'd like to see a few more items.

1. Please post a link to the ThredUp listing and the seller's ID.
2. Please post a picture of the full interior and if there are pockets
3. Please post a picture of the outside bottom of the bag
4. If there's a made in tag inside the bag, please post a picture.

There have been a total of 2 times that I saw genuine red, white and blue tags that were removed from authentic Dooneys and added to fakes but this doesn't appear to be the case here.

I can't seem to get a link to share the old listing with you. Hopefully this screenshot will suffice? Unfortunately with Thread up I cant see who the specific seller is, since it's a consignment type sale. It has "made in Italy" stamped into the leather. I think the quality of the shoulder strap is really what's throwing me. Thanks for taking the time to help!PXL_20230829_120715773.jpg

It think the bag is authentic. I'm not familiar with the style so I can't name it.
