Check Serial Number On Dooney And Bourke
EBay If Your Bag Is New and Purchased from the Store First things first: To really understand what a true designer bag is, you need to know what it would have if you were buy it new and true from the store, or a supplier store (Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Barneys, etc.) What to expect when buying a new Dooney & Bourke bag: 1.) Inside your bag there will be a sitcker on a pocket with what's called 'the style number.' That style number will match the warranty card located on the bottom portion of your official Dooney & Bourke card. 2.) Inside your bag there will be a blue, white and red tag sewn into the seam that states 'DOONEY AND BOURKE.' On the reverse side of this tag there will be a sequence of random letters and numbers. 3.) On the tag of your new Dooney & Bourke bag (the tag that you would remove from the bag after purchase, since it's not really 'part of the bag') there will be a description of the bag and it will also have the style number that you find on the sticker on the pocket of your bag and the warranty card. Convinced that a Dooney & Bourke bag is for you? Here are a few ways to learn which ones are best for you, or to shop all things Dooney!
Poshmark A New Dooney Should Have a Guarantee Card According to the Dooney & Bourke website, every authentic Dooney purchase comes with a 'guarantee card.' The company backs every authentic Dooney bag with what they call their 'ironclad Dooney Guarantee.' They offer an unconditional guarantee for a full year of normal use. However, in order to be covered by the product guarantee, you must register your Dooney with the information on the guarantee card that comes with each product. You can find the online registration portal on the brand's website. If the Dooney product has surpassed its year of purchase, you cannot ask Dooney to cover it in the event of normal use damage.
However, a reseller should include the guarantee card so that you, the consumer, know that you are in fact buying an authentic Dooney & Bourke bag. EBay If Your Bag is Vintage with the Leather Duck Oval If you want to know whether your Dooney & Bourke bag is in fact authentic vintage, check the Dooney & Bourke oval duck logo sewn onto the front. If it is only glued, and not in fact sewn, you are probably looking at a fake bag. Now, to explain the duck logo itself! It's speculated that since the company was founded in New England, the 'duck' represents the heritage and origin of the brand. But, this is not true!

The was invented in 1983 to help the consumer have a bag that could be gently cleaned with a damp washcloth, and without worry that it would get wet and damaged. The AWL is made with cowhide leather and quickly became a bestseller. Because ducks are also all-weather creatures (they can dive into water and essentially come out 'not wet,' as the water quickly flicks off their feathers) founders Dooney and Bourke chose the duck to represent the quality and craftsmanship of this waterproof bag. EBay Examine the Labels Inside As described above, an authentic Dooney bag (whether vintage or new) will have a red, white and blue tag sewn into the interior of the bag with the serial number on the back of the tag. This serial number will match the serial number on the price / brand tag of a new Dooney bag. If the Dooney is vintage, it will have a green tag. Sometimes tags are ripped out of Dooney & Bourke bags.
If you notice red, white and blue threads where the tag used to be, you are probably looking at an. This is up to your discretion, however. Hint: Considering production has predominantly moved overseas, some newer Dooney bags have tags which say 'Made in China.' Do not be alarmed, but be sure to educate yourself via the Dooney & Bourke website so that you can know if the style of the bag you are looking at was actually produced by Dooney. EBay Examine the Embossing and Hardware Dooney & Bourke is not afraid to show off its name! Most Dooney bags are designed to have Dooney & Bourke written somewhere on the bag.
Leather bags often have the name embossed onto the hardware (which is a brass/gold color) or embossed directly onto the leather. This embossing has no 'mistakes' and is tight stitching. If you see anything that looks suspicious with the embossing, it is probably a fake.
On newer bags, the signature is hung as an ornamental charm (or called 'FOB' by industry terms) and on even newer bags, the ornament is a heart. A fake 'meant-to-be-new' Dooney & Bourke bag may not have the signature Dooney ornament. EBay Examine the Craftsmanship The reason a Dooney & Bourke bag costs hundreds of dollars new is because it is well designed with near perfect stitching, piping, fabric, real leather and a clean interior. The zipper's color will match the rest of the bag and not look out of place. The zipper will easily move back and forth without catching or seeming slow. If you spot a Dooney outside of its normal supplier (that means a department store or another high-end goods store), do the simple but effective 'scratch' test or also called the 'fingernail test.' If the scratches with your fingernail, it's probably real.
If it doesn't, it's probably pleather. Also, run your hands over the leather if you know what real leather versus fake leather feels like. You may have to educate yourself on this first by comparing.
I Love Dooney Coupon Code
Don't Mistake a New Dooney for a Vintage One. EBay Don't be fooled by a reseller claiming a new Dooney & Bourke purse is a vintage one!
Some resellers think that labeling an item 'vintage' when it really isn't will make the item more attractive to the buyer. Being a vintage lover myself, I never really understood that until I realized how some innocent shoppers genuinely find the word 'vintage' appealing and will buy something that definitely is not vintage simply because they are misguided and uneducated. The bags shown above are not vintage Dooney & Bourke bags. By definition, a vintage item is 20 years or older.
These bags carry the newer designs of Dooney, including a more colorful base to the bag, a heart ornament hung from the zipper, and when a newer leather piece, plain and minimalist design. A vintage Dooney bag has granular real cowhide leather.
A newer Dooney bag may be made from real leather but is smooth and almost 'too perfect' looking to be vintage. It takes years as a vintage lover to have that sixth sense for vintage, but handling a vintage Dooney & Bourke bag will always feel different than a newer bag. It just takes practice to figure out how which actually feels.
Qvc Dooney And Bourke Handbags
Can you get more pictures? It looks like the real thing.
I have several dooney and bourkes so If I could see the inside and the registration and the stickered serial number that would be great. Dooney used to make that type of purse but it is no longer on their website.
I don't remember seeing it in ivory but I do remember seeing it in those pink, black, and green colors. If you can get pictures of the inside and the registration info I could possibly help you.
From the outsided it looks fine. The seller has no negative feedback so I think you might be fine.
