Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
Sorry it took a while to ponder this one - one has to consider every detail these days , not just a single feature. The photos on that selling site never help - too small . So after all the work , scarf is now sold

Today, the seller who sold off the Faubourg Tropical yesterday has put a Precious Paradise shawl on sale 😳


to be fair, it looks beautiful but we all know this design is only released in a 90 silk, right?

All of a sudden, I don’t feel bad I missed out on the Foubourg Tropical, and sorry to have waisted your time @marietouchet !

Hello, there is one on Vestiaire Collective as well at the moment, you find it if you type Hermes 140 into the search field, not Precious Paradise however. It looks wonderful, has the title, Hermès Paris and even a caretag. Is there a wave? Quite creative, I think.

Hi could anyone please help me authenticate this Jungle Love scarf? I've already bought one from this exact same seller( same colour etc) and got it authenticated but it seems fishy to have several of the same colour.

Scarf Name: Jungle Love

Are you interested in buying the scarf in the sale? If so, I would be happy to help.

If you need help after purchase, I might suggest a paid authentication service eg ITS ALL GOODE.
If you need help with sellers try this thread instead

 
Dear authenticators,

Would you please share your thoughts on this shawl?
Thank you !

Hmmm I dont see any red flags BUT

1. These photos are AWFUL - dark, low res, and probably photoshopped (to enhance colors).

2. This seller site VINTED , ughhh, the photos are always bad, there is no easy way to enlarge the photos - I have tried on several of my different computers, I cant see the NUANCES of the features with these low res images. This seems to happen with any seller on this site. It is the site ? Not the seller ???

3. Modern pen and ink style designs like this one - the only way to determine authenticity (via photos) is to look at the NUANCES (tee tiny stuff) of all the features and be very very strict about wanting GREAT photos of EVERYTHING.

So, to summarize, I see a trend - scarves on this site are almost impossible to authenticate with any accuracy/confidence. If you are interested, take them up on the offer for a PAID authentication.

Thank you very much @marietouchet !
I duly noted your point on the quality of the photos on Vinted… I think I will not risk it tbh. This stresses me out to much.
