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.
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Empreinte Card Holder? A: This compact piece is designed for everyday essentials rather than full-wallet storage. At approximately 11 x 7.5 x 0.5 cm, it is best suited to your most-used cards, with space in the centre for a few folded notes or receipts. Capacity can vary slightly depending on card thickness and how tightly it is packed.
Q: How many cards can it hold? A: This style is generally designed with two outer card slots and one larger central slot. It works best when kept lightly packed for a slim profile, though the leather may soften slightly with use. Overfilling can stretch the slots over time, so we recommend carrying only the essentials.
Q: Can it hold cash or coins? A: It can hold a few folded banknotes in the middle compartment, so it works well for minimal everyday use. It is not designed for loose coins, as there is no zipped section or snap closure to keep them secure.
Q: What is Monogram Empreinte leather? A: Monogram Empreinte is Louis Vuitton’s supple grained cowhide leather, embossed with the Monogram pattern for a more subtle and refined look than coated canvas. It feels soft yet structured, and the embossing may become more supple and develop character with age and use.
Q: Will this card holder fit easily into small bags or a coat pocket? A: Yes. Its slim shape makes it a practical choice for mini bags, evening bags, coat pockets and compact crossbody styles. It is a good option if you prefer a lighter, more streamlined alternative to a full wallet.
Q: What condition is this specific item in? A: According to this listing, the exterior and interior are in very good condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches, which is consistent with gentle pre-owned wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item comes with its box and dust bag. Everything included with the purchase is shown in the product information on this page.
Q: How should I care for Empreinte leather? A: To keep it looking its best, avoid rubbing it against rough surfaces and keep it away from water, direct heat, strong sunlight, perfume, oils and hand sanitiser. If needed, wipe the surface gently with a soft, lint-free cloth and store it in its dust bag when not in use.
Q: How do you authenticate this Louis Vuitton card holder? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using detailed reviews of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and other brand-specific details. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
