Perfect for dinner dates, weddings or a polished workday, this compact Louis Vuitton Vernis Victorine Wallet in deep burgundy slips neatly into mini bags while keeping cards, notes and coins organised. Its glossy Monogram Vernis and gold-tone accents bring a touch of Parisian elegance to everyday errands and special occasions alike.
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 are the dimensions and interior layout of the Victorine Wallet? A: Approx. 12 × 9.5 × 2 cm. The compact, envelope-style tri‑fold has a press‑stud closure and features six card slots, a zipped coin pocket, two flat pockets and a full‑length bill compartment.
Q: What can it hold day to day? A: It comfortably carries six essential cards, coins, cash and receipts, with the two flat pockets for extras like a travel card or folded notes. Its slim profile makes it ideal for small and mini bags.
Q: What material is this and what should I watch out for? A: Monogram Vernis is a glossy patent‑coated calf leather. While beautiful and structured, it can show fine scratches and is sensitive to colour transfer, especially from denim, printed materials and darker leathers. Avoid prolonged sunlight to help prevent fading or yellowing on lighter tones.
Q: How should I clean and store Vernis leather? A: For surface dirt, gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp, lint‑free cloth and allow to air‑dry. Do not use soaps, solvents, alcohol, or conditioning oils on the patent surface. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from heat and humidity, and avoid contact with plastics or printed materials when stored.
Q: Will my banknotes fit without folding? A: Yes, the wallet includes a full‑length bill compartment designed to hold standard banknotes. If you carry unusually tall currencies, please compare with the measurements above.
Q: Can the press‑stud or zip be serviced if needed? A: Yes. Louis Vuitton offers aftercare and repairs for eligible items, including hardware components. You can request service through their care channels or discuss options with a trusted leather specialist.
Q: Does this wallet have a date code or a microchip? A: Earlier pieces typically have an embossed date code. Many items produced from around March 2021 onwards may instead have an embedded microchip and no visible date code. The absence of a code alone does not indicate inauthenticity.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: This individual wallet is stamped France. Louis Vuitton also manufactures the Victorine in other countries, so stamping on the model can vary by production run.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed in product information, this piece comes with a box and dust bag. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including checks of materials, stitching, heat stamps, hardware, glazing and date code/microchip verification where applicable. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
