Did/should all the plates have the number of the bag? # xx out of xxx made
or there was some inconsistency in the begining of Cabats production??

I thought so too, but somewhere in the Cabat thread I saw one with a similar numbering system
I'll dig around for that today
I can't tell anything about the zipper on the pouch - I can't seems to get under it enough to read it
thanks all for your help!

I did a search both here and on Google with the serial "7349 I 395" and ... well, it's on other cabats, too, so I'm thinking ... perhaps a BV SA might be the best information source on this.... Unless V0N wants to say a few words...

so that's bad or that's good if it's on other cabats? I'm guessing bad

07349 is the original style number for the a Medium Cabat. 07350 is the old style number for the a Large Cabat.
Just like the original style numbers for the Veneta were 05368/05369 or something like that (I don't know, I'm going from memory - I do have to work for a living unfortch).
That's pretty much all I'm going to say about authenticity tags and plates at the moment.
@alisonanna , return the bag. There is just no way to give a definite opinion of authenticity without that white tag, and none of our Cabat experts have chimed in. *even though I realize this isn't the AT thread.

Thanks so much for taking time to give me information and advice. Maybe I'll put some pics in the authenticate thread - I want it to be authentic :)
Now I'm going to have cabat fever and be on the hunt again - I understand this whole cabat thing!

Here is a better picture of the leather. I bought this wallet to go with a bright orange purse, but not even close. I would like to start a search for a purse to match this wallet. I just need to id the color. Thanks!

Is it?!?!? The site said cervo and the leather looks different from my ottone pouch. Not that I am an expert, hence my question here :smile:

I am not either, just see it looks different from my cervo bags, and i own 9 from different years and in different colours...
Let's wait for the Gurus to have a look :)

It's the Memory Tote. Several BVettes have it. Do a search by name and you'll find more about it. I think it was made in both Nappa and Cervo.

Yay for names of bags! SO glad to be wrong on this one. However, the one on the BV site is definitely Nappa, not Cervo or Goat. And I may just have to eat my words about it not being Cervo, too - BV does such wonderful things with and to leather. Cervo is not this grained or wrinkly. BUT!
