Thank you so much! I’ve said it before..your knowledge is incredible. Regards.
I have a question and am putting it here (it's slightly related) since I'm too new to be able to start a thread. I am writing a general interest article about authenticating Gucci bags. (No, I'm not an expert! I am just a writer.
I've been asked to include info about authenticating vintage Gucci bags. Can anyone tell me 1) How is "vintage" defined (as opposed to ... new? (not really even sure about that) and 2) is there any resource to tell me about authenticating vintage Gucci bags? It seems that it is very complicated as there are no hard and fast rules regarding serial numbers, logo, etc. Any insights would be greatly appreciated -- thank you so much! Ketura

Vintage 20 years or more old (imo). We had a discussion about vintage in the Lv forum. Sorry I can’t help about resource for authenticating.

1. As @snibor said, about 20+
2. It's not for general interest really. It's highly complicated, very specialised and involves a good deal of time researching and owning around 50 different types of Gucci bags/luggage pieces from the main line and others, all from different eras.
Hello paper tiger it’s been a moment now since I’ve had the bag and I have been working hard on it, when I bought it I was in terrible terrible state, (you can checkbook my previous post for photos) the suede was scratched scuffed and very discolored, the webbing was grows and faded and the leather was in bad state.
Took me many hours of work but I managed to rework the bag into its beautifull state, the only thing that I could not fix is the bottom right side of the webbing it’s a Little’s torn but here I post some photos of what it looks now.
Thank you so so so much for your help! Hope you like it
Regards Quincio
How fabulous.
How lucky you are to have found such a bag and how lucky that bag is to have found you!
My first post!!
I found a small Gucci address holder or maybe a memo pad in my cupboard that I reckon is from late 70s early 80s and the only reference I can find anywhere on the internet about it is this reference
https://rococo.jp/item/itemgenre/old-gucci/28473/
which will translate into English if it has gone back to its own language. Right click and translate.
I would like to know if it is rare and if anyone else has one. Is it worth selling, or saving or what? It is in good condition, the canvas material,the edging leather and the leather interior
The pen is the original but needs a refill and I think I bought it in Gucci Old Bond Street.
I would really appreciate any information and/or comments from those who are in the know.
Thanking you in advance

The one in the Japanese advert is slightly earlier than they are stating and the refill pad is original. As you can see it is smooth blue calf leather whereas yours is boar-skin. I would see if you can get some original refills for it.
Gucci's lifestyle products, some early rtw (particularly suede or leather coats) and original silver jewellery command higher prices compared with the many bags/luggage. Though Gucci's pre-loved prices are climbing atm.
