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 in this Chanel card holder? A: It comfortably holds around 4–6 payment or ID cards in the outer slots plus a few folded notes or receipts in the central compartment. To maintain its shape and stitching, avoid overfilling; capacity varies by how you pack. Refer to the Measurements on this page (approx. 11 x 7.5 x 0.5 cm).
Q: Will my driving licence or ID card fit? A: Yes. Standard bank cards and most driving licences follow the ID‑1 format (about 85.60 x 53.98 mm), which fits easily in Chanel card slots.
Q: What is caviar leather and how does it compare with lambskin? A: Chanel’s caviar leather is grained calfskin with a pebbled texture. It generally resists surface scratches and holds structure better than smooth lambskin, while lambskin feels softer and looks more plush but can mark more easily.
Q: Can I keep coins inside? A: This slim style is designed for cards and folded notes rather than coins. Loose change can bulk the piece and stress the seams over time. If you carry coins regularly, a zipped coin purse is recommended.
Q: How should I care for and store it? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid water, oils, and harsh cleaners. Keep away from prolonged sunlight, heat and humidity, and do not overfill. Store upright in a breathable dust bag with no pressure on the leather or logo hardware.
Q: What does the serial number 14375016 indicate? A: Chanel serial numbers help identify a production series. A 14‑series code generally corresponds to around 2011–2012. In the sticker‑and‑card era, the number on the authenticity card should match the interior serial sticker. From 2021 onward, Chanel moved to microchipped metal plates in new pieces; this item is from an earlier series and includes the card and sticker.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece: box, dust bag, authenticity card and serial number tag.
Q: Is the card holder unisex? A: Yes. The minimalist format and size make it suitable for all users and most small bags, pockets or suit jackets.
Q: Does it have RFID protection? A: Chanel does not advertise built‑in RFID shielding for its card holders. If you want extra protection for contactless cards, you can add a slim RFID sleeve; note that experts consider RFID skimming risk to be generally low in everyday use.
Q: Where are Chanel card holders made? A: Depending on the collection, Chanel small leather goods are typically made in France, Italy or Spain. The specific origin is stamped inside the piece.
