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: How many cards and notes does the Citizen Twill card holder take comfortably? A: This piece has six dedicated card slots plus one central compartment. Most users carry 6–8 cards and a few folded banknotes comfortably; capacity varies with card thickness. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions (approx. 10.5 × 7 × 1 cm).
Q: Does it have RFID‑blocking protection for contactless cards? A: Hermès does not specify an RFID‑blocking layer for Citizen Twill card holders. Contactless skimming risk is generally considered low; if you prefer extra protection, you can add a separate RFID‑blocking card or sleeve inside the central compartment.
Q: What is special about the Citizen Twill line? A: Citizen Twill combines a smooth or grained leather exterior with a colourful silk‑twill interior featuring Hermès motifs. It’s a compact, refined design made by Hermès artisans for everyday use.
Q: What leather is this and how will it age? A: The exterior is grained calfskin in black with a silver‑tone logo stamp. Hermès full‑grain leathers develop a gentle shine and soft patina over time. Slots will ease slightly with use—avoid overfilling to preserve structure.
Q: Is it made in France? A: Yes. Hermès card holders in the Citizen Twill line are made in France, reflecting the house’s leather‑craft heritage.
Q: How should I care for the leather and silk lining? A: Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth; keep away from moisture, oils, and prolonged heat or sunlight. Store empty in a breathable dust bag, and avoid sharp objects or ink inside to protect the silk lining. For deeper care, follow Hermès leather‑care guidance and avoid DIY conditioners.
Q: Can it hold coins or receipts? A: The central compartment is ideal for folded notes and receipts. It is not designed for coins, which can bulk the card holder and stress the seams and edge paint over time.
Q: Will it fit business cards and ID/driving licence? A: Yes. Standard credit‑card and ID sizes fit the card slots, and most business cards fit either in the slots or the central compartment, depending on thickness.
Q: What does the stamp Square P (2012) mean? A: Hermès uses a blind‑stamp system to indicate production year. A letter inside a square denotes 1997–2014; the letter P in a square corresponds to 2012. This confirms the year of manufacture and is not a serial number.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, no additional items are listed.
