How to Distinguish a Phony Ed Hardy Bag
With reference to the tag inside the handbag: Within the handbag is a fabric tag. On the forepart of the tag should be the symbol: “Ed Hardy” centered within the tag, and “by Christian Audigier” centered below it. Always look at the symmetry of the symbols, if they are crooked or disproportionate inside the tag that is always a red flag. On the backside of the tag should be a serial number. This number order should have two sets of numbers parted by a hyphen. There ought to also be a line situated on the underside of the serial number moving crosswise. This detail is one-of-a-kind to Ed Hardy.
On the straight stitch line there should be a reflective aspect, or fabric. What this implies is that the seam line must to some degree gleam, or spangle when posted under primary light. When you shift the tag under the light, it must flicker like a hologram detail. This is not a vivid twinkle, but a slight one that could be assuredly observed when tested. Many knock-off pocketbooks will not have this singular aspect.
So look the inner tag: The front for the rightly centered symbols, and the back for the serial number with hyphen and the under seam for the reflective aspect.
Bag Composition: Ed Hardy has a standard multi-textured outside consisting of canvas/leather, silk screen, embroidery and rhinestones. This means that the pocketbook flows from grainy to smooth to pointy and fixed. This is a quality detail the phony bags will get wrong. Forgers can use some category of tapestry and possibly silk screen however they will leave out the rhinestones. Or they will fasten some stones but abandon the embroidery component.
Plenty boguss won’t integrate all these textures, particularly the rhinestones. Stones would be the most timely and expensive feature, so always examine to make sure the handbag has actual stones, (if it is a model ed Hardy originally fashioned with rhinestones).
Good luck and safe shopping!
