Q: How should I care for a vintage canvas Hermès tote?
A: Handle it gently and avoid overloading, heavy rain, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture. For routine care, use a soft dry cloth for the canvas and store the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use. For deeper cleaning or restoration, specialist care is recommended rather than harsh at-home products.

Q: How is a pre-owned Hermès Fourre Tout authenticated?
A: Pre-owned Hermès pieces are typically assessed through overall construction, stitching, materials, hardware, stamps, and finishing details rather than by a single serial number alone. Hermès states that authenticity is guaranteed only through its own official sales channels, so professional resale authentication is especially important for vintage items.
