This bag has many features that to the untrained eye would look very authentic. It has a charm that say Chanel-Paris. (It does look real). However the outside hang tag has a hang tag that is thin & not sturdy like described as authentic & says “Made in Turkey” and has a number #269, which is not authentic to Coach. That will be cut off so no-one will know. It has a tag inside that says “Made in France.” (However after researching the tag should be sewn in). It was hard to find authentic Fabric Chanel bags, but I think this one has a very classy look. I had to research to figure out it was not authentic, but it is still beautiful for those of us who cannot afford 4-$6000!
