How can I tell if my Chanel bag is authentic?
The first thing to look at is the authenticity code, which all genuine bags come with. For example, codes on a Chanel Classic 2.55 will be in the front left corner of the bag, and should always match the serial number inside the bag.

Do all Chanel bags have serial numbers?
Chanel handbags and wallets each have their own serial number, jewelry and clothing both have date codes and those are not unique to each piece. In handbags, serial numbers are placed on a sticker, (now) covered with a hologram. Serial numbers are usually in a corner or pocket of a handbag.

How many digits is a Chanel serial number?

8-digit
Features: 8-digit serial numbers beginning with 30/31. The newest bags feature a serial number printed on a white sticker that is covered with transparent tape, with two Chanel logos above the serial number. The sticker has an “X” cut into it to prevent removal without damage.

Are Chanel bags made in Italy?
Chanel bags are made in both France and Italy, so either can be included in the brand stamp. The brand stamp will only specify a city on an imitation Chanel


The Leather
The first thing to pay attention to is the leather. The authentic leather in Chanel bags is either lambskin or caviar skin. Lambskin leather is incredibly soft, smooth, and velvety, with a buttery sheen. Even if you haven’t touched lambskin leather in your life, you’ll understand the meaning of high-quality and ultra-softness once you touch it.

The CC lock is the signature Chanel handbag look. One glimpse of that interlocking CC logo against quilted leather, you’d instantly know that a purse is a Chanel — or at least trying to be. The copycats will try to use the CC lock to convince you, but if you know what to look for, you won’t be fooled.

In the fake vs real Chanel Classic Flap image above, we have pointed out how the fake Chanel Jumbo bag has its diamonds on the rear side of the bag looking different from the retail bag’s diamond shapes.

In fact, the fake Chanel Classic Flap bag has its diamonds on the rear side looking a bit wider than the ones on the legit Chanel bag.

Besides, we have also pointed out how the fake Chanel Classic Flap bag has its stitching looking less deeply stamped into the bag compared to the legit Chanel CF bag, which has its stitches more deeply stamped into the bag.
