Hi, can someone please ID this bag? It came in a grey Balenciaga bag so it cannot be very old. Thank you.

def newer since mini and nano did not come out until later on. I can't tell from this photo if it's a mini or a nano. Can you post the measurements?

 

[alexandra.johnson]

Yes, size and season. Is it nano or mini? Black is the colour of both the hardware and the leather.

Also if you would like the side and season of the bag then can you post the pictures of the front and back interior tag? Thank you!

Does anyone know what color this is? Of course TRR hates posting tags,

Here they are. The size is approximately 7x4.5x2. It looks lighter in photos because of the strong light. It is black IRL.

It's not authentic, sorry.

oops

It's not authentic, sorry.

Can you please tell me why? It is from a reputable personal shopper, I would really like to be able to state my case. The bales, rivets and hardware look good? The tag embossing worries me, but I have seen it vary in Bal bags.

Font is wrong on the tags, style code is for a mini and the measurements she gave you are too small. The colour code is for gris fossile, not black.

Could it be a gris fossile mini city? Is the font really impossible to be authentic? Would a photo of the dust bag help? Can you tell if that is authentic? Thank you for your help.

The measurements you gave us is the size a nano bag. Not a mini bag. the mini bag is about 9 inches in length. Dustbag doesn't tell anything about authentication.

You could pay for an authentication but IMO it's not authentic.

Roger that I understand, I didn't think my comment went against anything because the measurements are found on multiple forums, educational pages etc. I own both a nano and mini (both authenticated) and know what the measurements are between them that's why I only commented on the size question. Thats all. But I will be keep that in mind for the future.
