Q: What are the dimensions of this item? A: For this specific piece, the measurements are approximately 10 × 7 × 1 cm (W × H × D). Hermès typically quotes around L 7 × H 10.5 cm for current Calvi models; as each item is handmade, small variations are normal.
Q: How many cards will it hold? A: Owners commonly carry about 6–10 cards comfortably. The Calvi can expand to hold more (roughly 12–16 depending on card thickness), but we recommend not overfilling to preserve the leather’s shape. It also fits a few folded banknotes.
Q: Can it hold business cards, cash or coins? A: Yes—standard business cards and folded banknotes fit neatly in the two compartments. The Calvi does not have a dedicated coin pocket, so coins are best kept separately; consider the Calvi Duo if you carry coins regularly.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What is the Hermès Calvi Card Holder? A: The Calvi is a compact, envelope‑inspired card holder crafted with an origami‑style fold from a single piece of leather. It features two internal card slots and a press‑stud closure. This piece is in camel Epsom calfskin with silver‑tone hardware and is a vintage/pre‑owned item.
Q: What are the dimensions of this item? A: For this specific piece, the measurements are approximately 10 × 7 × 1 cm (W × H × D). Hermès typically quotes around L 7 × H 10.5 cm for current Calvi models; as each item is handmade, small variations are normal.
Q: How many cards will it hold? A: Owners commonly carry about 6–10 cards comfortably. The Calvi can expand to hold more (roughly 12–16 depending on card thickness), but we recommend not overfilling to preserve the leather’s shape. It also fits a few folded banknotes.
Q: What’s the difference between the Calvi and the Calvi Duo? A: The original Calvi has two main slots. The Calvi Duo adds extra organisation (a gusseted pocket/added compartment) so it can separate cards, folded notes and a few coins more easily. It is slightly thicker overall.
Q: What leather is this and how does Epsom wear? A: Epsom calfskin has a fine, regular printed grain. It is lightweight, structured, and comparatively resistant to surface scratches, helping the piece hold its shape and colour well with regular use.
Q: How should I care for Epsom leather? A: Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from moisture, oils, cosmetics and prolonged heat or sunlight. Avoid harsh cleaners and over‑stuffing. Store in its box or a dust bag in a cool, dry place; leather naturally develops a patina over time.
Q: Can it hold business cards, cash or coins? A: Yes—standard business cards and folded banknotes fit neatly in the two compartments. The Calvi does not have a dedicated coin pocket, so coins are best kept separately; consider the Calvi Duo if you carry coins regularly.
Q: What hardware finish does the snap have? A: Calvi snaps are typically palladium‑plated (silver‑tone) on current models, though finishes can vary by year and leather. This piece features silver‑tone hardware as described.
Q: Where is it made and will it have a serial number or date code? A: It is made in France. Hermès uses discreet blind date stamps to indicate year of manufacture (these are not unique serial numbers). On vintage items, stamps can fade or be hard to read; “Not legible” is common and does not affect authenticity.
Q: What’s included with this listing? A: This item comes with an Hermès box. Please review the photos and Accessories section for the exact inclusions.
