Wikipedia Week | Authenticity
Because of the high profile of the Hermès brand and the high prices attached to their products, there is a significant amount of counterfeit Hermès merchandise produced and sold, some of which ends up on online retail and auction websites such as eBay.
Authenticity can sometimes be determined by the presence of these characteristics:
* Even stitching
* Gilt or blind stamped in the front face under the tap: "Hermès Paris, Made in France"
* Craftsman's marks and letter year of manufacture stamped in a square underside of right belt. The year of manufacture should be consistent with condition and history of bag
* Interior leather zipper tag parallel with zipper hardware, not perpendicular
