Buying a Hermès, Chanel or Bvlgari bag in Tbilisi
A Birkin or a Classic Flap is bought on condition and authenticity, in that order, and both are read from details that photographs hide. Corner wear, handle darkening, hardware plating and the interior lining tell you what a bag has actually lived through, and none of them show up in a listing photograph taken well.
So every bag is assessed in person before it reaches our display — construction and stitching, hardware and stamping, interior condition and any accompanying paperwork. Where a bag has wear, we photograph and describe it rather than angling around it.
What we check before a piece goes on display
- Stitching — angle, tension and thread consistent with the house and the period
- Hardware — stamping depth, plating condition, weight and turn-lock action
- Stamps and codes — blind stamp, date code or serial consistent with the construction
- Leather and canvas — grain, alignment, corner wear and patina on exposed trim
- Enamel and finishes — on Bvlgari hardware, chipping at the scale edges and plating wear
- Interior — lining condition, pocket construction and any odour or staining
- Paperwork — receipts, dust bag, box and authenticity documentation where available
Selling or trading a bag
We purchase bags outright and accept them in trade against watches and other pieces in our collection. Authentication and valuation are carried out on site and cost nothing, whether or not you decide to proceed. If you accept our offer, payment is settled immediately.
Bring the dust bag, box, receipt and any accompanying paperwork. On bags the completeness of the set affects value substantially, and a piece with its original documentation places far more quickly than one without.
Care and repair
Cleaning, hardware checks and minor repairs are handled on site. Anything structural is assessed first and quoted before work begins, and we will tell you when a repair is not worth doing.
For watches, see our watch service page.
Bags are one of several categories we hold. See the full range of luxury watch brands at Dauri Club.
