Gucci

Gucci at a glance

Gucci, founded in 1921 in Florence, Italie, holds a singular place in leather goods. The maison built its name on a precise territory: leather goods, Ready-to-wear, Accessories.

Its unmistakable signature: green-red-green Web stripe, Horsebit, Double G.

The Gucci models to know

On the secondary market, the value of a Gucci bag is decided first by the reference. Here are the lines our experts see most often — and those that resell best.

• GG Marmont (2016) — The chevron matelassé with the iconic Double G.
• Dionysus (2015) — Mythological tiger clasp, a symbol of the house.
• Jackie 1961 (1961) — Jackie Kennedy's favourite hobo bag, reissued.

The pre-owned Gucci market

Collectible leather goods remain the most liquid segment of the secondary market: rare models and neutral colours resell within days, while seasonal editions call for more patience.

How we authenticate a Gucci piece

Every piece that joins Monogram Paris follows the same protocol in our Paris workshops: no catalogue photography, no supplier imagery, only shots of the actual item.

• Saddle stitching: regularity, angle and tension of the waxed linen thread
• Heat stamp: depth, typeface and placement consistent with the archives
• Hardware weighed and examined under a loupe (crisp engraving, original plating)
• Zip, pull, lining and feet: original parts, or replacements disclosed
• Entrupy analysis followed by a second expert review before listing

Care and storage

• Keep the piece stuffed inside its dustbag, away from direct light
• Avoid water, perfume and light leathers against new denim
• Feed the leather once or twice a year with a balm suited to the hide

Buy, sell or request a valuation

Two routes: outright purchase, paid within 72h of authentication, or consignment, with a commission that decreases with your membership card (25% Blanche, 22% Or, 15% Noire).
