“Quality is remember long after price is forgotten”
processing
Original Gucci handbags are made exclusively from high quality materials. As an example, the classic "GG" logo serves here. If this is present on a handbag or another article by Gucci, it is always symmetrical and clearly mapped. For leather handbags, the "GG" logo is always symmetrical and clearly punched out. Never printed! The seams of an original Gucci handbag are always perfect and equally executed and make a perfect, flat picture. The thread itself is always slightly sewn and never runs "Cordless"!
Embossing / HotStamp
All original Gucci handbags are "embossed" with the Gucci lettering (hot stamping or hotstamp). This Gucci lettering is always on the inside of the handbag. Newer or younger models have a leather label on which the HOTTSTAMP is impressed. If a handbag has an inner compartment, the leather label is attached there. For vintage models, the hot stamping is embossed in the lining.
Each original Gucci handbag has the following hot stamping:
®️ GUCCI manufactured in Italy
This hot stamping is marked by symmetrical letters. That is, all letters must be at the same height. A special feature is that the "U" from the word Gucci on the left side is thicker than on the right side. In addition, all letters are arranged centrally under the ®️.
Metal parts
With an original Gucci bag, all metal parts such as chains, zippers and buckles are provided with the Gucci lettering. These should feel hard or massively. The logo Gucci is embossed on the back of the zipper. The zipper of an original Gucci handbag is running clean and without great effort.
Model number / serial number
All original Gucci handbags are provided with a model number (often referred to as serial number) on the back of the leather label in the interior (see embossing / hotstamp). The number sequence consists of 10-13 numbers distributed on two lines. The number sequence in the first (upper) line describes the pocket model. The model number is always clean and symmetrical punched. Attention: For older or vintage GUCCI models, the model number is often printed in the lining. These GUCCI handbags often interrupt the number sequence in the first or upper line by a hyphen or a point.
This pattern is called at Gucci "Guccissima".

No, there are Gucci bags from a variety of materials.
Yes that's right. Gucci attaches great importance to that almost all pockets can be worn over the shoulder or even cross-body ".
The term "Hobo" often appears with Gucci handbags. This means "tramp" or "migrant workers". These had or still have their 7 things in a pocket or sack, which is linked up and could be worn over the shoulder by means of a stick.
At Gucci, the handbags are often made of fabric or then made of leather.
