Perfect for days when you travel light, this navy Chanel Camelia card holder keeps essentials in order from coffee runs to client meetings. With a central compartment and three card slots, it slips into a blazer pocket or clutch, making a refined companion for dinners, theatre nights and city breaks.
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 this card holder fit comfortably? A: As a flat card holder with one central compartment and three exterior card slots, it comfortably carries 4–6 standard cards. The centre slot can hold two cards; very thin cards may allow one extra, but we recommend not exceeding 6–7 in total to avoid stretching the leather.
Q: Can I store folded cash or coins in it? A: Folded banknotes and small receipts can be tucked into the central compartment. Loose coins are not recommended, as this style has no zip or gusset and coins may slip out or distort the shape over time.
Q: What are the exact measurements and will it fit in mini bags or pockets? A: Approx. 11 × 8 × 1 cm. Its slim profile slides easily into most mini bags and jacket or trouser pockets while keeping essentials organised.
Q: What is Camellia embossed leather and how is it different from classic quilting? A: Camellia embossed leather features Chanel’s signature camellia flower motif pressed into the leather for a refined, textured finish. Functionally it behaves like the classic flat card holder; the difference is mainly the surface motif and look.
Q: How should I care for this leather card holder? A: Wipe gently with a soft, non‑pilling cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Keep away from prolonged light and moisture; if it gets wet, pat dry and air‑dry. Store empty in a breathable pouch, and avoid overfilling to preserve the slot shape.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, the serial number tag is included. A box or authenticity card is not included unless specifically stated in product information.
Q: Is it authentic and what does the serial number tag mean? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly inspected by our in‑house specialists. This piece bears a Chanel serial number tag (27620902). Chanel historically used serial stickers and authenticity cards; in recent years many items transitioned to a microchipped metal plate. The presence of the serial tag is consistent with earlier small leather goods.
Q: Does the silver‑tone hardware scratch easily? A: Fine hairline marks can occur with normal use. To minimise them, avoid contact with keys or hard surfaces and wipe with a soft cloth. Do not use metal polishes on the logo plaque.
Q: Is the colour exactly as shown in photos? A: The colour is navy. We photograph carefully, but variations in screens and lighting can make shades appear slightly different in person.
