Chanel’s authentication cards and hologram stickers
The number on the hologram shall be the same as on the authentication card.
Authentic Chanel handbags from the mid 1980s on come with authenticity cards embossed with a serial number.
The serial number matches the serial number appearing on a sticker placed somewhere within the handbag’s interior lining. The serial number sticker has Chanel logos and was protected by a clear tape with hologram security feature from approximately 2000-on. The sticker, Chanel logo, and hologram design varied with the date the bag is manufactured.
Check Seattle based Yoggi’s Closet’s great chart to see when your Chanel bag was manufactured.
Note that over time, serial number stickers may become detached from handbags. Authentication cards also often become lost. Therefore, Chanel handbags missing these items may still be authentic.
Äkta Chanel väskor har sedan mitten av 1980-talet försetts med ett äkthetskort där serienumret ska stämma överens med det serienummer, samt Chanel logo, som finns på en sticker inne i väskan. Kort kan försvinna och sticker lossna så en väska kan vara äkta trots att ingen av dessa finns kvar.
