CONDITION REPORTS
A structured remote report of your handbag’s visible condition and authenticity, based on the photographs and records you provide. Consistent fields, defined condition grades, written findings and referenced photographs bring the evidence together in one clear digital record.
Authentication is included for supported brands and items. Remote suitability is confirmed before the assignment begins.
Four core sections follow the same structure for every object. Additional photographic evidence can be included in an appendix.
Your object’s identification, materials, colour, dimensions and measurement source, identifying marks, accessories and reported repair history. A component-by-component checklist records the visible condition of the exterior, corners, edges, handles, stitching, hardware, closures and interior, with a concise overall summary.
Comments explain the location and extent of wear or damage, distinguish client statements from observed evidence, and record anything that could not be assessed. A written authenticity determination—authentic, not authentic or inconclusive—sets out the supporting evidence, references, reliance on external opinions and any further images or examination required.
Overall and detail views are organized by photo ID, view, original filename and capture date where known. Captions and numbered annotations connect visible features to the written findings. Original evidence is retained; illustrative images are not used as evidence of your object’s condition or authenticity.
The report identifies the client, intended users and use, review dates, evidence and methods, assumptions and remote limitations. Examiner qualifications, assistance, relevant interests or prior services, sign-off and report version provide a traceable record.

Visible condition + authenticity · photograph-based review
01 / Object record
The object record brings together the brand or maker attribution, model, materials, colour, hardware, dimensions and measurement source, identifying marks, accessories and reported repairs or provenance. Report and object IDs identify the record throughout.
Object CR-001. Structured burgundy leather handbag. Dimensions supplied by the client in centimetres; not independently measured. Image capture dates unknown.
Materials, official colour names, dates and provenance are identified as unverified where appropriate. An identifier, receipt or accessory does not establish authenticity on its own.
02 / Defined condition grades
Each component receives a descriptive grade supported by observations and photo or finding references. 4 Very good means minimal visible wear; 3 Good means light visible wear; 2 Fair means noticeable wear or damage; 1 Poor means substantial visible damage. U means not assessable and N/A means not applicable.
Corners and base: grade 3 (Good). Issue code AB (abrasion/scuff). References: finding F01 and photograph P02.
This is METIVERA’s descriptive scale, not a universal or marketplace grade. Grades are not averaged and do not imply a monetary value. An area that cannot be assessed is marked U rather than assumed free of defects.
03 / Exterior and construction
The checklist covers exterior panels and shape, corners and base, edges and glazing, handles or straps, and stitching or seams. Standard issue codes identify abrasion, stains, colour change, cracks, losses, deformation, seam issues, hardware wear and apparent repair or alteration.
F01 — Front lower-left corner: localized rubbing visible in P02. Extent and surrounding coverage described in the comments.
Appearance alone may not establish the cause or age of wear, or confirm a particular repair method. Concealed layers and structural soundness are not established by photographs.
04 / Hardware, interior and accessories
Hardware and attachments, closures and zips, interior and pockets, and accessories presented each have a place in the checklist. Any client-demonstrated operation is identified separately from still-image observations.
Hardware: fine surface scratches visible on the clasp face in P03. Closure operation not assessed from the still photographs. One strap photographed; lock and keys not presented.
A photograph does not establish mechanical operation, odor, feel or future durability. Not presented describes the evidence available; it does not establish that an accessory was originally missing or lost.
05 / Comments and additional findings
Dedicated comment areas explain the location, nature and extent of an issue and link it to the checklist and photographs. Separate fields record client-reported history, evidence limitations, follow-up image requests and recommendations for physical examination or specialist referral.
F02 — Light marking visible at the interior base in P04. Client reports no prior restoration; that statement has not been independently verified.
Observed facts, attributed statements and interpretations are distinguished. Missing views or poor image quality are recorded with their effect on the conclusions.
06 / Authenticity determination
Authentication is included for supported brands and items. The report identifies the attribution assessed, features compared, evidence and reference sources, any external authentication relied upon and unresolved questions.
Illustrative determination: Inconclusive. Additional close-ups of the identifying marks and hardware are required before a supported conclusion can be reached.
This is an independent professional opinion within the remote scope, not a brand-issued certification, manufacturer endorsement or guarantee of legal title. An inconclusive result is not represented as authenticated.
07 / Photographic record
Photographs are organized by photo ID, view and orientation, source filename and capture date where known. Captions and numbered annotations identify the feature being discussed. Additional evidence can be included in a numbered appendix.
P02 — Front lower-left corner. Annotation 1 marks the rubbing described in F01. Original filename and capture date, or unknown date, are recorded.
Original evidence is preserved. Image processing and annotations are disclosed. The generated workspace image on this page is illustrative and is not photographic evidence for these fictional entries.
08 / Scope and examiner sign-off
The report records the client and intended users, agreed use, review dates, evidence, research, methods, assumptions and limitations. The examiner record identifies qualifications, assistance, relevant conflicts or prior services, sign-off and revisions.
Method: review of supplied photographs and records. No physical inspection. Prepared for the named client’s collection documentation. Report ID, object ID, examiner, issue date and version are recorded.
The service includes condition and authenticity findings, not a monetary value opinion or insurance coverage amount. It is not a formal appraisal. No dismantling, tactile or odor examination, laboratory testing, concealed-layer examination or load testing is performed.
Educational sample only. The observations and authenticity outcome are fictional and do not describe a client object. Your completed report is based on the evidence reviewed and its stated dates; it cannot establish later condition, concealed defects or the identity of a substituted object.
Tell us about your handbag and what you need to document. We’ll confirm whether remote assessment is suitable and request further photographs or recommend physical examination where needed. If you need a monetary value opinion for insurance or another defined purpose, we’ll discuss a separate appraisal scope.
