How We Authenticate: Inside the Vault

Authenticity is not a feature of our business — it is the business. Before any piece appears in the collection, it passes through a four-stage verification process conducted by our authentication team.

I. Initial Screening

We begin with the identifiers: date codes, serial numbers, hologram stickers and blind stamps. Each is checked for format, font, placement and period-correctness against the maison's known conventions for that year and factory.

II. Material Analysis

Luxury reveals itself in the details. We inspect hardware weight and finish, leather grain and hand, stitch count and angle, edge paint, and the depth and spacing of logo embossing. Counterfeits fail here more often than anywhere else.

III. Heritage Reference

The piece is then cross-checked against manufacturer data and design archives — confirming that this combination of material, hardware, size and edition was genuinely produced, and when.

IV. Final Certification

Only then is the piece sealed and tagged, and issued with a Certificate of Authenticity bearing a unique ID and a verification QR code that links back to its record.

If a piece cannot pass all four stages, it does not enter the vault. No exceptions.

Luxury, Verified — always.
