Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
Could you help me to authenticate this one? I think it's an older (real vintage) Hermes potentially. There is no artist signature, Hermes mark, but it feels very reminiscent of Hermes. I don't have the care tag, as the thrift store that I found it at tears off all of the care tags on the scarves. It has a silk feel to it.IMG_0982.jpg
 
I think this is authentic.

Would you please help to authenticate this one?

Comment: The seller has 100% positive feedback rate, the palm tree trunk curve looks rigid, not as smooth as what I saw in other postings, but probably it is distorted by the folding wrinkle.

I think this is authentic. I do not speak French, but I am proficient at Hermes.

Comments: Parlez-vous française pour le description?
 
Thank you so much ;
And you’re absolutely right, it has some imperfections...
I took some time browsing the internet and discovered this scarf was being offered quite a few times last year. So, I’m going to wait for a (near) perfect one, after all I have 11 months...[emoji6]
Again, Thank you for your time & effort [emoji4]

You're welcome. Taking it slow is difficult to do, especially in the beginning. H-slopes are fast and slippery, so good for you and your patience!

No need to weigh in except to say I wouldn't second-guess the Hall of Shame people.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to imply I was second guessing them, as they hadn't spoken on this listing in particular, but I wasn't comfortable posting directly to that board despite my own suspicions (and even on the basis of the seller appearing there on the past, as I don't know whether that was a one off/mistake). I ended up erring on the side of caution myself, but thank you for the response.

Good Morning,

Could someone please help me authenticate this scarf? I read on page 1 that it is the preference to not authenticate closed sales on eBay. I'm not sure if that actually means you absolutely do not comment on closed sales, or just prefer not to. I have the scarf in hand and can take my own photos if you'd like but I thought these photos were probably better than I would take and wanted to give you the context of the sale in case something about the language or the seller was a red flag for you.

Item: Authentic Hermes Silk Scarf Carre 140 Shawl Wrap Cape L'Arbre de Vie Orange
Listing number: 254050009756

Comments: The scarf is lightweight and beautiful. Two things concern me just a tiny bit. The first is that the hem is a little wonky. This may be because it was somewhat squashed giving it an odd, not perfect enough for Hermes look.

Also, I cannot seem to find another like it online. I find variations of this scarf but not this shade of orange that is 100% silk and in 140 cm.
