Towards a global standard: the future of Hermès authentication

We don’t believe authentication should depend on one person’s view. It should be structured.

Authentication still means different things depending on who you ask. For some, it is a single opinion. For others, it is a scan and a certificate issued based on a photograph. In many cases, it is a process with no structure and no clear standards around who is responsible or how the decision was made.

At this point in the market, that is no longer good enough. Hermès bags are used in legal claims, family asset reports, insurance policies, and inheritance plans. They are traded internationally and held by clients who expect their value and provenance to be properly protected. Despite this, the systems that exist to validate them are often still informal.

Authenticated by Aureon was built to change that. We don’t believe authentication should depend on one person’s view. It should be structured. It should be documented. And it should be based on a model that is built to meet professional standards.

We built this for private clients, for institutions, and for legal and financial advisors who need documentation that can be relied on when the stakes are high. This is not just a service. It is a system. And we believe it has the potential to set a new global standard.
