The Bonnie Cashin Foundation has complete access to over 3,000 pages of press material regarding Cashin's
career, over 5,000 of Cashin's design sketches, and over 2,000 photographs of models in her designs, as well as exclusive
access to her clothing collection and personal effects. Via these resources, the BCF provides electronic letters of
authenticity, including date of manufacture and Cashin's original description of the design.
The fee for each research request and certificate is $20.
If your item was designed by Cashin and we are unable to provide documentation, the research fee will
be refunded. Provide clear photos of the item as well as any label information. Please
contact us
if you are unable to send digital photos or use Paypal and wish to send information and payment via regular mail.
The BCF is not affiliated with any other Cashin website and is the only official source for documented
authenticity of Cashin's designs.
Note: When purchasing Cashin handbags, please be aware that the "B" engraved on a hinge does not stand for "Bonnie." The mark indicates that the hinge was made by Branson Manufacturing, and in no way proves that the piece was designed by Cashin.
