I'm not aware of any color for vintage Willises called Teak. If it was a non-vintage color I wouldn't know anything about it.

Hello there,
Can anyone help me please? Sorry to ask and happy to wait if appropriate…
Thank you, as always

There should be a small cloth tag inside with the model number, that would help you start to look

Thank you, I should have added that.
Style is 32281, creed is G1481-32281.
There’s a small thread dedicated to these mini duffles but I can’t identify the colour of mind from the descriptions alone.
Any help appreciated

Hello, while doing a Google search for another bag, I noticed this one that at first looked to me like a Watson, but then I saw a picture of a creed next to it, that I imagine belongs to the same bag, and it seems to be from the 60/70s IIRC. I checked the catalogs posted here (thanks for sharing), but I could find nothing similar. I was told that it could be a 9530 but the pictures I saw have a different strap.
Any ideas, TIA
Any ideas, TIA

It was made in the late 1980s or more likely late 1990 according to the details and wording on the creed, no earlier. The "Made in the United States" indicates it was made after 1987, and the Bean Bag creed makes it even more recent, late 1990.
What would point you to the 1960s or 1970s?
ETA - The timeframe fits the 9825 Mini Bag that sallellen posted perfectly.

Hello, I am new and still a lot to learn, but I am confused... I was told that when a creed says Bean Bag is fake. I used search and found several posts saying that some were real (done by accident or something like that), so how to tell? I honestly am confused, please forgive me.
You can tell by posting in the Authenticate This Coach thread and letting the authenticators compare the details of the creed and serial number with both real and fake examples. Random posts on the internet are dangerous. They may have been written by an actual expert or, as is much more likely, by someone who read somewhere blah blah blah and of course that information was probably copied from someone else who also got it completely wrong. That's one reason why sites like tPF exist, so people can actually find accurate answers.
The "always fake" statement has been corrected by me a number of times, my first corrections were as far back as 2014 and have been posted not just here but also in Ebay's now-deleted Guides section. The first ones were posted at Ebay on May 23, 2014 and reposted here at tPF on June 24, 2019 and which I believe was itself a repost of an earlier correction. There's also a Cached page at the Wayback Machine of the original Ebay addition to the Guide pages that I mentioned was originally published on May 24, 2014, the page was Cached in 2018:
The Curious Case Of The Coach Bean Bag | eBay
Those vintage Coaches that sometimes show up in the secondary market with creeds that start "This is a Coach BEAN Bag..." have always been a puzzle. There never seemed to be any reason for Coach to make...

Before I post please can you direct me to the mulberry post for authentication? Thanks so much http://forum.purseblog.com/mulberry-shopping/authenticate-this-mulberry-please-read-post-1-first-852042.html

I'm going into detail because I've read comments a while back from one person who REALLY should know better about how I was "putting out incorrect information". The accusation was made AFTER those corrections had been publicly posted and available for years, so I hope the person or persons involved finally gets the message.
When coming across contradictory information, ASK. Most of the time it's a pretty safe bet that the newer information is probably BUT NOT ALWAYS the correct information. Don't depend on anonymous posters showing off their "knowledge" by posting replies at Ask Yahoo or some other fountain of useless information. Always try to find someplace where the posters actually know what they're talking about and can prove it.

I see, in this case (and in general) asking about the specific bag is the best approach, got it!
Thank you. Coach CS in the UK haven’t been able to help, and unfortunately I can’t find one for sale or sold.
I’ll just stick with generic ‘brown’ until I know better.
