Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Vavin Wallet on Chain Bag
Perfect for dinners, gallery openings or city nights, Louis Vuitton's Vavin Wallet on Chain in Damier Ebene with red accents and gold-tone hardware moves effortlessly from day to evening. In very good condition, it offers a secure S-lock flap, chain-link shoulder strap and a red-lined interior with card slots to keep essentials organised.
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 Vavin Chain Wallet? A: This Wallet on Chain is designed for evening and light daily use. It comfortably holds a smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), keys, lipstick, and a few small essentials. With its built-in card slots and zipped coin pocket, there is no need for a separate wallet. Please refer to the dimensions (19 × 13 × 4 cm) on this page or contact us for a tailored fit check.
Q: Will my smartphone fit? A: Yes, with a width of approximately 19 cm, the Vavin Chain Wallet generally accommodates larger smartphones such as the iPhone Pro Max or Samsung Galaxy Ultra, provided they are not in excessively bulky cases.
Q: Is the chain strap removable or adjustable? A: The chain strap on the Vavin model is typically detachable, allowing the bag to be carried as a chic evening clutch. The length is usually fixed, designed for shoulder or crossbody wear depending on your height. We list the strap measurement on this page—please refer to that for the specific drop of this piece.
Q: How does the S-lock closure work? A: Inspired by Louis Vuitton’s historic trunks, the flap features a heritage S-lock. On the Vavin Chain Wallet, this is typically designed with a magnetic mechanism beneath the lock plate for easy access while keeping your valuables secure.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The interior is smartly organised to function as both a bag and a wallet. It features a main compartment, a zipped pocket for coins, an inside flat pocket, and multiple card slots suitable for credit cards and ID. This specific piece features a red lining.
Q: How should I care for Damier Ebene canvas? A: Damier Ebene coated canvas is renowned for its durability and resistance to water and scratches. Clean it gently with a soft, damp cloth. The coloured leather trim should be kept away from oil, grease, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading. Store the bag upright in its breathable dust bag when not in use.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton bags feature a heat-stamp trademark (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin). This piece is labelled as Made in Spain. Depending on the production year, it will either have a date code stamped inside a pocket or along a seam, or an embedded microchip (common in pieces from 2021 onwards). We are happy to help locate the code for this specific item on request.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Included accessories are always listed in the “Accessories” section of the product details. For this specific bag, a dust bag is included. If an item (like a box) is not mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes a rigorous multi-point authentication process by our in-house experts. We examine materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and codes to ensure the item is a genuine Louis Vuitton product. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
