Chanel Logo Letters on the bags
The quickest way to tell if your Chanel bags are real or fake is to examine the Chanel letters printed on the bags carefully.
- First of all, the "C" letter should be in the shape of a circle. The 'A' letter is flat on the top and should not be sharp. The "E" letter has three horizontal strokes, with the 2nd stroke the shortest, and the 3rd stroke the longest. As you can see from the image below, the upper one is the real Chanel bag and the lower one is the fake Chanel bag.
- Secondly, the letters should be printed neat and tight, without the blurs on the letters.
-
Interior Leather of the Bags
You should also check the interior leather of the bags. The real Chanel bags have interior leathers soft and thick, but the fake Chanel bags have interior leathers harder than the real ones. You should compare the touch of the interior leathers to determine if the bags are real or fake.
-
Letters Carved on the Button
- The Chanel letters carved on the back of the button should be clear and deep. Fake Chanel bags usually use laser to carve the letters on the button, which are shallower than the real bags.
- Also the carving of the real bags should be clear without blurs, but the fake ones will have metallic blurs on the letters carved on the button. From the image below, the upper one is the button with letters carved on a real Chanel bag and the lower one is from a fake Chanel bag.
-
Screw of the Metal Plate
The metal plate is also a difficult process to fake. You can have a detailed examination of the metal plate on the Chanel bags.
- First of all, the screw of the metal plate is a straight one, not a cross one. If you see the metal plate of Chanel bags using cross screws, it's possible that the bags are fake ones.
- Secondly, the edges of the carving on the screw should be sharp neat. If you see that the carving have blur on the edges, you can say that the bags are fake ones. As you can see from the image below, the upper one is from a real Chanel bag, and the lower one is from a fake Chanel bag.
-
Double-C Metal Logo
The double-C metal logo is also symbolic for Chanel bags. There are a few points to check on the double-C metal logo.
- The color and shape of the Double-C Logo on the Chanel bags. The double-C metal logo on real Chanel bags is made of bronze. So you check the color of the double-C logo to see if it's close to the color of the bronze. And fake double-C metal logo uses the alloy. The color of the fake logos is very different from the real bronze ones.
