How can you spot a fake chanel handbags?
My aunt sent me this real nice Chanel bag from Chicago..thing is Im not sure if its authentic..It has this hard card with the Chanel logo saying its a card of authentic…what looks kinda weird or maybe its just me is that it has the gold writing that says Chanel and the logo like it is supposed to but it is on the top and not the middle and someone told me it says made in Europe or Italy and mine just says Paris but with the e being a 3…is it real or not??
chanel uses high quality calfskin on their bags NOT lambskin. they do use many other leathers and fabrics but the cambon line is entirely made of calfskin. cambon bags are made in italy, not france although chanel does manufacture items in france. the new “coco cabas” line was also made in italy, not france and I have verified this over and over with chanel. they do not sell seconds to outside sources and any bag that is not perfect is shredded and destroyed to prevent anyone including employees of chanel to resell them.
right now, the most commonly used counterfeit serial numbers on chanel bags are :7244764, 8947749, 9316391, 9395451, 9395455, 9675223, 9777617, 10218184, 10501946, 11062948 and 10803549. even counterfeits come with a serial number card and matching # inside the bag. the card should be black and gold, not laminated in plastic and the hologram inside the bag will pull apart if removed, thus ruining the tag. they do not make several different styles of authenticity cards. BLACK with GOLD trim and lettering.
chanel shopping bags are black with the word C H A N E L written across the front, nothing more, same for the dust bags and boxes that come with your bag. wallets and small leather goods do not come with dust bags, they are wrapped in black felt and placed in a chanel box.
the inside hologram sticker will match the authenicity card, it will also come apart if you try to remove the serial # sticker. they started using this type of sticker in the later 1980′s, before that the sticker was plain and placed in the bottom of the bag. the hang tag is made of white paper with the style #, style name, bag color, bar code and the price listed on it.
chanel did not make the little metal dog tag or small coin puse attached to many of the fakes. the coco caba bag does come with a matching make-up pouch. It is attached to the leather strap inside the bag.
it sounds like your bag is real but just check it against all of these details. hope this helps x
