In luxury fashion, authenticity is everything.

 

Whether it’s a Hermès Birkin, a Chanel Classic Flap or a Louis Vuitton Keepall, knowing your item is 100% genuine changes everything — the confidence when you carry it, the resale value when you sell it, and the trust between buyer and seller.

At The Luxury Savvy, we specialise in professional designer bag authentication for clients across the UK — especially Glasgow, where authentic luxury can be harder to access locally. Every item we authenticate is carefully inspected using expert knowledge, advanced tools and detailed brand reference data to ensure complete accuracy.

 

Why Authentication Matters

With the rise of online resale platforms, luxury bags are being bought and sold more than ever — but so are counterfeits. Many fakes now come with forged receipts or false authenticity cards that look convincing to the untrained eye.

Our authentication service protects both buyers and sellers. For buyers, it brings peace of mind before or after making a purchase. For sellers, it adds credibility and reassurance that increases buyer trust and selling power.

Because when it comes to luxury fashion, proof is everything.

 

If You’ve Bought Elsewhere — We Can Help

If you’ve purchased a designer bag online or abroad and want to confirm it’s genuine, we’re here to help.

 

Even when a platform or seller claims an item has been “authenticated”, it’s not always reliable — and that uncertainty can linger. At The Luxury Savvy, we act as your independent verification service, giving you a clear, evidence-based answer you can trust.

Whether your bag came from eBay, Vinted, Vestiaire Collective, Depop, or even a private sale, our authentication report gives you the confidence and documentation you need — especially if you plan to sell, insure, or simply want peace of mind.

How Our Authentication Process Works

We’ve made the process simple and transparent while maintaining the high standards expected in the luxury world:

Step 1: Submit your item

Send us clear photos or book an appointment to drop off your item at our Glasgow location – 22 Montrose Street, G1 1RE.

Step 2: Expert inspection

Our trained team examines every detail using a combination of AI-powered authentication technology and manual inspection against brand-specific reference points. This includes stitching, hardware, date stamps, fonts, serials, and construction techniques unique to each fashion house.

Step 3: Receive your certificate

Once verified, you’ll receive an official Authentication Certificate — available digitally or printed. Each certificate includes the item’s brand, model, hardware, material, serial/date code, and outcome (Passed or Failed Authentication).

Our certificates are designed with our signature gold border and feature The Luxury Savvy logo, offering a professional, elegant finish you can proudly present to buyers, insurers, or future clients.

Who Uses Our Authentication Service

Our clients range from first-time buyers to seasoned collectors and boutiques. Many come to us after purchasing items from online platforms or international resellers, wanting extra peace of mind before insuring or reselling.

We also work with sellers who want their listings backed by official authentication — an easy way to attract serious buyers and achieve higher sale prices.
