Perfect for streamlined days—from the morning commute to an elegant dinner—the black Bottega Veneta Intrecciato card holder slips into a jacket or trouser pocket, keeping essentials close with understated Italian refinement.
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 does the Bottega Veneta Intrecciato card holder hold comfortably? A: It is designed with four external slots and one central compartment. In daily use, most people carry 4–6 cards in total without over‑stretching the leather; adding more may loosen the slots over time.
Q: Can I carry cash or coins in it? A: The central compartment takes folded banknotes and receipts. Because it is an open slip pocket (not zipped), loose coins are not recommended as they may slip out and add bulk.
Q: Does this card holder have RFID‑blocking protection? A: Bottega Veneta does not advertise RFID‑blocking for this style. If RFID protection is important to you, consider using a separate RFID card or sleeve inside the central compartment.
Q: What does “Intrecciato” mean, and why is it special? A: Intrecciato is the house’s signature technique of weaving leather strips to create a supple yet durable surface. Developed in the late 1960s–1970s, it has become an enduring hallmark of Bottega Veneta craftsmanship.
Q: Will my driving licence or transit card fit? A: Yes. Most licences and travel cards are the same size as a standard credit card (ID‑1 format), so they fit the slots.
Q: What are the measurements and how slim is it in a pocket? A: Approx. 8 × 10 × 0.5 cm. The slim profile slides easily into front or back pockets while keeping essentials organised. Capacity may vary based on card thickness and how much you place in the centre slot.
Q: How should I care for the leather and weave? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and avoid liquids, oils, creams, make‑up, perfumes, direct sunlight, heat and abrasive surfaces. Do not overfill the slots to prevent stretching; store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Q: Where is it made? A: This piece is crafted in Italy, consistent with Bottega Veneta’s leather goods.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information section on this page. If an item (such as a box or dust bag) is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Bottega Veneta card holder? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous in‑house checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and construction details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further photos or information on request.
Q: What does “Very Good” condition mean here? A: This piece shows light traces of use consistent with careful wear, such as minor surface marks; both exterior and interior are very well kept, with hardware showing light micro‑scratches only.
