Hello Forum!
I am new to the forum so please bear with me

I hope I uploaded all information necessary.
While helping my mom clean out her attic, we came across this Chanel handbag. I asked her if it was real, but my mom has never been big into fashion and simply said her great aunt gave it to her in 1982-1983 for her birthday. My great aunt was a fashionable lady, which makes me believe it could be real.
Since my mom is clueless when it comes to fashion, she never took care of the bag as it should have been. She did not store it in a special place or protect it in a dust bag. It's been in our attic, not shielded from the elements, since 2001, and before then, my mom used it off and on. The leather (or what i think is leather) is in really great condition for being stored in a humid/dusty attic. I hope the pictures and general timeline of when the bag was new will help in authenticating this bag.
In doing my own research, I found that this bag does have a YKK zipper, stitching seems to be quality, evenly spaced, all around, and the tassel seems to be similar to those used in the 1980's. Also, there is no cloth lining in the bag, it is a leather interior as well.
Hope you can help me out
