Louis Vuitton Handbag

How can you tell whether a louis Vuitton handbag is real?

My grandpa got it for me when he went to New York. It says made in France but i dont know who to tell.
The tag also says louis vuitton paris. Made in France

* The classic Louis Vuitton monogram bags run from $500 to more than $1,000.
* Real Louis Vuitton purse snaps are monogrammed. Manufacturers of replica Vuittons often skip that specific.
* Genuine Louis Vuitton bags usually start out with light leather. Over time, the leather will wear and darken.
* Take a close look at the handles, which should be made of an entire strip of natural leather.
When first purchased, the handle is light tan in color; over the course of a few weeks, it should
oxidize and turn into a darker, cognac color. Fake bags don't change color like this because the
handles are usually painted.
* The stitching on the handles should be clean and consistent, and should use yellow thread.
The sides of the handles should be a shiny, glazed red.
* The zipper pull should be brass hardware, and quite heavy looking. Look for a neatly imprinted "LV" symbol on it.
* The canvas of the bag shouldn't be too soft or stiff, or "oily" or shiny.
* The LV monogram should have irregular brown lines through the gold-colored letters, and flower pattern.
* Fake monograms may be a solid color or look too green or orange.

* Ask for ID. There should be a card with the style number and name inside the bag.
* Know what styles of the bags are genuine and look at the lining. Fake bags often come in styles and colors not available in the real thing and the lining will be different.
