Perfect for polished days at the office or streamlined travel, this Hermès Citizen Twill card holder in dark brown grained leather keeps essentials neatly at hand. Slip it into a suit pocket for meetings or carry it in a small bag for evening plans; six card slots and a central compartment offer elegant organisation without bulk.
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 is the Hermès Citizen Twill Card Holder? A: It’s a slim small leather good featuring a leather exterior and a silk-twill interior printed with Hermès motifs. Most versions offer four card slots (two per side) and a central pocket, though details can vary by year and collection—please review the photos and description for this specific piece.
Q: How many cards will it fit and is there a central pocket? A: Typically, four external slots plus a central pocket. Comfortably 6–8 cards in total, depending on card thickness. Avoid overstuffing to prevent stretching and to keep the silhouette crisp.
Q: What materials are used and how should I care for them? A: Hermès often crafts Citizen Twill card holders in Epsom (embossed, structured, scratch‑resistant) or other premium leathers such as Swift/Clemence (softer, more supple), with a silk twill interior. Wipe leather gently with a soft, dry cloth; if needed, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not use soaps/solvents or apply conditioners to the silk lining. Keep away from moisture, oils and prolonged heat/sunlight.
Q: Will the silk twill lining snag or show colour transfer? A: Silk twill is durable for daily use but can snag if rubbed against sharp edges; keep keys and rough items separate. As with all textiles, colour transfer may occur when in contact with dark or damp materials—use with care and store dry.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: Leather and silk are not waterproof. Light splashes should be blotted immediately and allowed to air dry naturally. Avoid rain, high humidity and direct heat sources to preserve the leather finish and silk print.
Q: Can it hold cash or coins? A: Folded banknotes and receipts fit well in the central pocket. It’s not designed for coins; loose change may strain the seams and mark the silk lining.
Q: Does it have RFID‑blocking? A: Hermès card holders generally do not include RFID‑blocking layers. If you need this feature, use a dedicated RFID sleeve for specific cards inside the holder.
Q: Where is the Hermès stamp/date code and how is authenticity verified? A: Many Hermès SLGs have a blind stamp inside indicating the workshop and year; location and format vary. Newer pieces may include embedded identification technology rather than a visible date stamp. A Retro Tale authenticates every item through rigorous multi‑point checks; the presence or absence of a stamp alone is not definitive.
Q: Is it unisex and will it fit in small bags or pockets? A: Yes. The slim profile suits any style and slips easily into most trouser pockets, coat pockets and mini bags. Please refer to the product’s listed measurements to ensure it meets your needs.
Q: Does this item come with its original box or dust bag? A: Inclusions vary for vintage and pre‑owned items. Please check the Accessories section and product photos for exactly what is included. If original packaging isn’t listed, it’s not included.
