Perfect for polished commutes, client meetings or chic evenings out, this black quilted Caviar leather card holder with gold-tone CC keeps cards streamlined in a blazer pocket or mini bag. In like-new condition, with a tidy central compartment and slots, its burgundy interior adds a discreet touch of Chanel elegance.
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: With one central compartment, one front pocket and two back card slots, it comfortably carries about 4–6 standard cards. The centre slot can hold folded notes or extra business cards. It is not designed for coins or bulky keys, which can stretch the leather.
Q: How slim is it and will it fit in pockets and mini bags? A: It is approximately 11 × 7.7 × 0.5 cm, with a very slim profile that slips easily into most trouser or jacket pockets and small handbags. For the best reference, compare your pocket or card size with the measurements listed here.
Q: What is Chanel caviar leather and is it durable for daily use? A: Caviar is Chanel’s grained calfskin with a pebbled texture. It is known for being more scratch‑resistant and structured than smooth leathers, making it a popular, hard‑wearing choice for everyday small leather goods.
Q: How should I care for this caviar leather card holder? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; avoid oils, solvents and harsh cleaners that could alter the finish. Keep away from prolonged sunlight and humidity; if it gets wet, blot gently and let it dry naturally. Store it in its dust bag with minimal pressure and avoid overfilling to prevent stretching.
Q: Does this card holder have RFID blocking? A: No. Chanel card holders are not designed with RFID‑blocking linings. If RFID protection is important to you, consider using slim RFID sleeves. Note that modern contactless card fraud via passive “skimming” is widely regarded as low risk.
Q: Is the gold hardware real gold? A: The CC logo is gold‑tone metal hardware, not solid gold. Fine hairline scratches can occur with normal use; store it away from keys or abrasive items to keep the hardware looking its best.
Q: Will the card slots loosen over time? A: A small amount of relaxation is normal as the leather moulds to your cards. Caviar leather resists stretching better than smoother leathers, but repeated overstuffing will deform pockets. As a guide, keep one card in each outer slot and 2–3 cards in the centre for long‑term shape.
Q: Does this item come with packaging and an authenticity card? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this piece, it includes the box, dust bag and an authenticity card. Please note that from 2021 onward many new Chanel small leather goods use a microchipped metal plate and no longer come with authenticity cards, so inclusions can vary by production year.
Q: Where was this card holder made? A: This piece is labelled Made in Italy. Chanel produces small leather goods in several countries (commonly France, Italy and Spain), so country of origin can vary by collection.
