Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
PS the form is in Post 1 of this thread, I asked a mod to add a reference to Post 1 in the banner - the reference must have got lost at some point !!!???

As to the MAGIC KELLY … hmmm an often faked scarf, I see no issues but caretag is removed/not photographed , ughhhh. And the photos seemed blurry to me - how do you evaluate
Condition in blurry photos? there are numerous identical scarves for sale, and their photos are clear.
Ps fakes are plentiful and a caretag would make resale more straightforward.



Can someone help me authenticate this scarf?

Hello dear Ladies,
I would love to hear your opinion on this 140 Plissé. I haven’t seen this format often and would love to buy it.
Thank you so much in advance

Authentic but not what you think. It is an older 90cm silk that was pleated so is 120 - 130 cm - measured the long way - on the bias.

It is NOT one of the newer 140cm pleated scarves - that would be some 180-200cm measured the long way.

Thank you so much for your quick and informative response. I didn’t know that and it is very interesting to hear. 🙏🏻

Would you mind taking a look at this one when you get a chance. :smile: I asked the seller to post a pic of the artist signature as it was missing…..He did but I cannot see a dot after the N in the signature - I asked the seller if there was one and he said no. I’m no expert but thought that is the way Natsuno Hidaka signed his designs? Thank you.

Seller: michellreye_81

Would appreciate if you would kindly take a look at this. The fact that this seller has no previous selling history seems fishy. ?

Thanks so much!
Unfortunately this seller does not show the photos needed to authenticate. Having no selling history is concerning from an experience standpoint but no feedback does not strike me as “fishy.” Sellers have to start somewhere. :smile:

You will need to request the proper photos from the seller!
 
Hi all! Would you help me authenticate this HERMES SMILES IN THIRD MILLENARY by Kwumi Sefedin?

Scarf Name: Smiles in third millenary
Item Number: Unknown
Seller: Me - I am the seller. I have a big issue with counterfeits and had an experience with the person who sold it to me that made me question the items I bought. I've posted it for resale, but with that experience, I am hoping to get a second opinion from the group as to whether this is authentic before anyone buys it. (Purposefully overpriced)
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/HERMES...-Kwumi-Sefedin-w-box-66a7ad7dbe296bd50cc924af

Also, I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has any suggestions about what an appropriate resale asking price would be. Thanks in advance!!!
