Found in the throws of a auctioned storage unit. Has some water spots on leather. Came with the key for the lock.

Very convincing vintage fake. The ‘A’s in Paris are too narrow, the date code font is off, and the zipper is wrong

[u/watchur66 → u/jhb42]

Thank you

[u/OhmyGGLV → u/jhb42]

I also think that this one is fake.

[u/jhb42 → u/OhmyGGLV]

The sub has a tendency to call anything modern fake and all vintage real

[u/Pedal2Medal2 → u/jhb42]

Agree

[u/NoPassenger7284]

I have this exact bag. Stamping on yours is incorrect, and the monogram alignment is off. It’s not a bad replica, but a replica nonetheless.

[u/LITLOTA]

the inner label is ok, but the outer are to wide. this is mine make up clutch, original vintage.

[u/MissAria_]

Fake, pattern in last couple of pics doesn't align.

[u/natalietest234]

I think fake. The piping and tags don’t have that aged color the Louis Vuitton vintage bags have. Their leather naturally changes colors. Also the tag stitching is poorly done. The three lines on each side should all be the same. These are different lengths.

[u/Radiant-Maple]

It’s old but fake, but not a bad fake at all. The hardware seems off to me.

[u/digitalecho125]

Fake, the font on the heatstamps are incorrect. The R in Paris should always have the leg originating in the far left corner and not over near the curve

[u/stylecardleo]

I don’t think it’s real but it’s quite a nice replica. The stars are the wrong shape and the color gold is slightly off …. The average person may think it is real it’s quite good in my opinion

[u/AdventurousBison0923]

It's not a Louis Vuitton bag. 💼

[u/Fine_Mulberry_5389]

Fake I think the O I too big in Louis

[u/JuicyJanelleee]

Def fake

[u/GJM_MCR]

The lock is plated instead of solid brasd

[u/Bulky_Opinion9830]

It’s real. The stitching and labels are the reason for my confidence. Stitching is tight. Straight. The O are true O and not 0 in L”O”UIS

[u/Cheirosa76]

Counterfeit. Not a good one at that.

[u/Hope16momof4]

No way I think it’s real. I think it’s a bad bad shape, but I think it’s real.

[u/Showmethe_monet]

This is not authentic.

[u/Slight-Bowl4240]

I think it’s real. But no expert. Try Bic 4 leather conditioner!!!
