Thus, you'll always get a predictable, stable, good return on your investment.
Let’s look at the step-by-step guide to follow when authenticating a Louis Vuitton Neverfull in Damier Ebene Canvas.
Material
The straps of the Neverfull are thin and end in a bulb where they are attached to the bag. There are only 5 stitches on each side of the V.
Strap
The Neverfull is a tote style bag with slim leather straps. Examine the workmanship carefully. All Louis Vuitton bags have precise stitching that is durable and will not show any loose threads. You will not see any sloppy craftsmanship or loose stitching.
Stitch
The stitch line on a Louis Vuitton should be nearly perfect. It should always remain an equal distance from the edge of the handbag at every point, and for the entire length of the stitch. There should be no irregular stitch lengths.
Hardware
Louis Vuitton has well defined and finely embossed logo in the metal works. Louis Vuitton doesn’t use YKK or other branded zippers--the back of authentic Louis Vuitton zippers will be blank. The hardware is highly polished and there shouldn't be any uneven plating, textures or waviness.
Rivets
Rivets should have a rounded (mound) shape with the "Louis Vuitton" or LV embossed. Note that the font may differ from the regular logo font (e.g. the "O" is square, not round).
Interior
On the inside of the authentic Neverfull, the base should be a solid colour, not printed with the strip or the pattern. The Azur has tan while Ebene has red lining. Newer versions may also have yellow and fuchsia lining, depending on the year of production. The interior base should be a solid colour, without stripes or monogram. The interior should have a seamed binding at the base.
Material
The Neverfull is actually a canvas bag, not leather. The only leather on the bag will be the vachetta leather trim and on the Ebene style the leather will have a PPC coating and will never get a patina. For a well used bag the canvas will become more soften slightly while a new Neverfull will be more stiff.
Serial number & Date codes
Most date codes are a combination of letters and numbers. The letters indicated the country in which the item was made while the numbers indicate the month/year of the production date.
