Wallet, card holder, wallet on chain: which format to choose?
The classic wallet (flap or zippered, like the Louis Vuitton Zippy) remains the most versatile format for everyday use. The card holder, being more compact, is suitable for those who travel light. The wallet on chain (WOC), worn as a crossbody or carried in hand, acts as an evening clutch while retaining the storage of a wallet: a format made famous by Chanel, then adopted by most major fashion houses. Finally, the coin purse remains designed for small change and essential cards.
Iconic houses and materials
At Louis Vuitton, Epi leather, recognizable by its ridges, and Monogram canvas dominate, alongside the more recent Empreinte leather, embossed with the monogram. Gucci works with GG canvas and Guccissima leather, embossed with the double G. Céline is recognized by its Triomphe motif, born in the 1970s. Chanel favors smooth or quilted leather, stamped with the double C. All these materials, in second-hand form, have already withstood years of use without losing their character.
Authenticity and RARR Vintage care
Every vintage wallet is inspected and authenticated by our team, described with a precise condition grade, and delivered with its RARR Vintage certificate of authenticity. To preserve the leather, avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and occasionally apply a care product suitable for the type of leather, tested first on a discreet area.
