Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
Dear authenicators,

Could I ask you to look at this shawl? I believe all the necessary photos are present? It is on Vinted so I hope you will be able to see the listing (the link seems to work for me).

Thank you so much!

Name: Faubourg Tropical CSGM
Listing number:I do not see any (Vinted)
Seller:Lalaaa2546
Link:https://www.vinted.be/items/4928971948-chale-carre-hermes-faubourg-tropical-140-cm
Authentic, I did note the seller offers paid authentication services. An authentication here will not help much in the event of a dispute, esp. if you decline their service

Thank you so much @marietouchet 😍 this is a grail design and cw for me!

I did see the seller offers paid authentication… would you generally advise to utilise this service?
Use an independent THIRD PARTY PAID authentication service, if you want to sleep better at night, and want another opinion than mine.

This is different - this is a PAID service offered by the seller VINTED. You would have to read the fine print, I am not sure exactly how this works at VINTED. You may forfeit the right to return by declining their service, the sale may be FINAL SALE if you decline (NO RETURNS)???

Good point! I checked and all sales are final in all cases ( typical in Europe) unless there is an issue of authenticity. In that case, returns are allowed irrespective if the authentication service was used.

I fully trust your opinion and did not see any red flags either, so I purchased. Thank you so so much for your generosity and expertise!!
 
Hello,
I'm wondering if this is authentic because it doesn't match the location of the copyright and the font of the artist's signature is larger than on a scarf purchased in a boutique.


When they make a particular color way of a scarf, would it have the same exact hallmarks in exactly the same locations? Just different colors? I'm wondering if this has changed over the years and maybe that's the difference?

I failed to find a link to a JUNGLE LOVE that is currently for sale. Yes - the features of scarf - see list header for this thread - change all the time, esp. as the editions proliferate as they have done in recent years.

So sorry I missed that in the header. I will double check that. I'm not familiar with this pattern but I'm assuming it has been released in multiple years.
 
Dear authenticators,

Could I ask you to have a look at this:

Name: Animapolis
Listing: /
Seller: franckamdm
Link: https://www.vinted.be/items/4991402277-carre-hermes-animapolis

I asked for additional photos of the signature and copyright which the seller send me but did not upload. Is that also ok?
