How can I assess the condition of a pre-owned Celine handbag?
To assess the condition of a pre-owned Celine handbag, focus on the following:
Exterior Leather: Check for scratches, scuffs, cracks, or discolouration on the leather surface. High-quality leather should maintain its structure and texture.
Handles and Straps: Inspect for fraying, cracking, or discolouration, especially where the handles connect to the bag.
Corners and Edges: Look for scuffs or fading, as these areas experience the most wear.
Hardware: Ensure zippers, clasps, and other hardware are functional, free from tarnishing or scratching.
Interior: Check for stains, odours, or damage to the lining. Clean, intact interiors add to the bag's value.
Structure: Celine bags are known for their structured designs. Ensure the bag holds its shape without sagging or deforming.
