With the designer handbag market often undercut by genuine-looking fakes, knowing how to get your designer handbag formally and officially authenticated is key – especially for those who plan to resell their bag as part of an investment drive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And while it is easy enough to find an authentication service near you, knowing what they look for and how the process works can benefit you, not just when it comes to authenticating your own handbag but also in spotting a genuine designer model when you come to make a purchase. After all, there\u2019s nothing worse than paying huge sums for something which, in the end, <\/span>turns out to be a fake<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Where can you get your luxury handbag authenticated?<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of the biggest and most obvious indicators of a high-quality <\/span>authentication service<\/span><\/a> is that they specialise in certain brands – rather than working with every brand under the sun.

How do you know if your Herm\u00e8s bag is authentic?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Arguably the most popular brand that we see here at Love Luxury is Herm\u00e8s, with an increasing amount of counterfeit and convincing fake bags making it more important than ever to recognise the differences between a real and a fake model.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The easiest way to ensure you receive a genuine Herm\u00e8s bag is to purchase it from a reputable retailer. If purchasing second-hand, this means asking for proof of authentication from the seller.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To help you to recognise an authentic Herm\u00e8s bag from a fake, here is a shorthand version of our <\/span>Herm\u00e8s authentication guide<\/span><\/a> – complete with indicators of a fake Herm\u00e8s handbag<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
