Ideal for dinners, weddings and city breaks, this vintage Louis Vuitton Vernis coin purse tucks neatly into a mini bag or clutch. The amarante patent finish in deep burgundy and gold-tone details lend polish, while the zip closure keeps coins and small essentials secure from day to night.
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 Vernis Coin Purse? A: With measurements of approximately 13 × 9 × 1.5 cm, it comfortably holds coins, 4–6 bank cards, folded notes, keys or a car fob, and small essentials like a lipstick or wireless earbud case. Capacity varies with how you pack; avoid overfilling to protect the zip and patent finish.
Q: Can I use it as a key pouch or bag charm? A: Yes. The attached chain with hook lets you secure keys inside or clip the purse to the D‑ring inside many Louis Vuitton bags, or to a ring on your strap or belt for quick access.
Q: What is Monogram Vernis leather and how should I care for it? A: Vernis is a glossy, patent‑coated calf leather embossed with the LV Monogram. Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep it away from materials that may transfer colour (such as denim and printed magazines) and avoid prolonged sunlight or heat to minimise fading or discolouration.
Q: Is Vernis leather prone to colour transfer or stickiness? A: Like most patent leathers, Vernis can pick up colour if pressed against dark or printed materials. Older pieces may also become tacky in hot, humid conditions. Store in a cool, dry place, avoid pressure against other items, and use a breathable dust bag. If transfer or stickiness occurs, consult a professional rather than using solvents or harsh cleaners at home.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: The coated finish offers light resistance to splashes, but it is not waterproof. If it gets wet, blot with a soft cloth and allow it to air‑dry away from direct heat.
Q: Will bank cards fit easily? A: Yes. Standard credit and ID cards fit; most users carry around 4–6 cards plus folded notes. For longevity, do not force‑stuff the compartment.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: Everything included is detailed under the product information on this page. For this item, the listing notes that no additional items are included.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: This coin purse is stamped Spain.
Q: Does it have a date code or microchip? A: Many vintage Louis Vuitton small leather goods include a stamped date code inside. In more recent years, the house has introduced discreet microchips instead of visible codes on some items. If you would like us to confirm which applies to this piece, contact us and we will gladly check.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes a multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, reviewing materials, stitching, Vernis embossing and gloss, hardware, brand stamps and coding, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
