Burberry Scarf Real or Fake ??

JackN688

I was given a Burberry Scarf that my mother bought for my father almost 20 years ago(he never wears it hence me having it now).

The pattern is beige background, a large red check 10 cm square, then inside each red square is a cross like structure containing 3 vertical stripes and 3 horizontal stripes black in colour, leaving 4 small approx 1 cm boxes, which are white, the spaces between the black lines are beige and white.
All the red and black lines are stitching done at a 45 degree angle.

The label...Says Burberrys(formatted like here) followed by a registered trademark symbol on it, on the following line says OF LONDON
followed by 100% LAMBSWOOL
MADE IN ENGLAND

It was supposedly bought in Fitzgerald's in Cork

Is it real ?

From what I know "Burberrys of London" was the original name - it got changed to Burberry in an effort to modernise the brand.

The pattern and the vintage certainly would make me think it was genuine.

what recession?

The tag is as it should be. However it's easy to fake a tag, and easy to fake anything realistically speaking. There's no way to really tell from looking at pictures most of the time, but if it has lasted 20 years and is still in good condition then the likelihood is that it's real.
