Louis Vuitton Monogram Flap Card Holder

Q: What typically fits inside this Louis Vuitton Monogram Flap Card Holder?
A: This compact piece is best suited to cards, business cards and a few folded notes. Its slim profile makes it ideal for light everyday carry rather than coins or bulkier items. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.

Q: What are the dimensions of this card holder?
A: This item measures approximately 11.5 cm wide, 8.5 cm high and 1 cm deep. It is designed to slip easily into a handbag, coat pocket or larger wallet compartment.

Q: Can this be used as a small wallet?
A: Yes. Many people use flap card holders as compact wallets for essential cards and a small amount of folded cash. If you normally carry coins, receipts or many cards, a fuller wallet may be more practical.

Q: How many cards will it hold comfortably?

Q: What does the date code CA0955 mean?
A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era indicate the place and time of production rather than acting as a unique serial number. CA is associated with Spain, and the 0955 format corresponds to May 1995. As with all Louis Vuitton items, a date code is only one part of the overall authentication process.

Q: How should I care for a vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas card holder?

A: Yes. This item is listed as unisex, and its compact Monogram design works well for anyone looking for a practical vintage small leather good.

Q: How do you authenticate Louis Vuitton items?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts using multiple checkpoints such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date codes. The date code supports the assessment, but authenticity is always judged through the item as a whole.
