Chloe Check Serial Number Tab

But, as with life, that turned out to be more complicated than it seemed.

Aside from quality and craftsmanship, Chlo doesnt subscribe to universal telltales across her products.

Different styles of purses from the Chlo Faye, to the Chlo Drew and Chlo Pixie bags all have different attributes that make them unique.

Therefore, as a disclaimer to this post, it is crucial to emphasize that the process of authenticating a Chlo bag should be done at a secondary level on a product-style-basis, and not only on the higher brand-basis level.

Whats the difference Stamps are painted on and embossing is physically imprinted into the material creating a shallow divot (note: some styles, such as the Chloe Small Aby Lock bag, will have the logo raised, rather than recessed).

Conversely, it also means that a painted logo that is not embossed is fake.

This can be either on the fabric itself as seen on this Chlo Faye bag (left) and Chlo Marcie bag (center), or on the hardware as seen on this Chlo Annie bag (right).

Among its several inconsistencies, the exterior logo should be on the outside flap directly above the stitching (as seen on the left), but was omitted in the fake (shown on the right).

The only difference is that directly underneath the embossed logo it should say MADE IN ITALY in all caps with spaces in between the words as shown in the authentic Chlo Aby bag below.

Many counterfeiters arent aware of this and will only use the brand logo.

Therefore, if the MADE IN ITALY embossing is omitted (or flawed) then its a fake.

Chloe Check Serial Number Tab

There should be two tabs: (1) the hologram tab, and (2) the serial number tab.

The hologram tab can be recognized by its shiny reflective appearance.

Occasionally, the hologram tab will be found on the backside of the serial number tab.

On the hologram tab, you should find (a) the brand name: Chlo; (b) the Lot number (which is usually around 6 digits), and either a barcode or SKU number.

The serial number tab is generally made from a swatch of leather.

On it will be the serial number, which is usually around 9 digits.

Make sure the serial number is embossed (not painted) onto the tab.

Likewise, if these tabs are missing or provide inconsistent information, its fake.
