Vintage Cartier Leather Bifold Wallet Late 1980s–1990s Burgundy Gold

Polished gold-tone metal caps anchor each corner of this bifold wallet, the deep burgundy leather surface marked only by a single embossed Cartier double C at the front. The silhouette is slim and elongated, designed to slip discreetly into a jacket pocket or bag, with all structure maintained by the reinforced hardware. Surface wear is visible at the corners and along the folds, consistent with regular handling.

Cartier’s signature bordeaux calfskin and gilt hardware defined the Must de Cartier era, a line introduced in the 1970s to carry the jeweller’s name beyond precious metals. This piece, dating to the late 1980s–1990s, bears all the hallmarks of that period — the saturated burgundy leather, the crisp double C motif, and the sense of quiet confidence that accompanied Cartier’s move into everyday luxury.

Inside, the dark burgundy leather lining reveals six card slots and a single full-length compartment, all clean and intact. No size or serial is visible; the original Cartier box is included.
