Vintage Dior Oblique Kiss Lock Coin Purse Late 1970s Burgundy

A gold-tone kiss-lock frame holds the edge of tightly woven burgundy and dark red Oblique jacquard, the signature Dior monogram running on the diagonal. The square 'Dior' plaque in polished gold-tone metal marks the front, while the compact silhouette fits easily in the palm — equally at home on any wardrobe, designed for coins or small essentials. The purse opens to reveal two divided compartments lined in deep red fabric, with the original Dior box included.

The Oblique motif — introduced by Marc Bohan in 1967 and here rendered in a saturated burgundy — sets this piece in the late 1970s to 1980s, when Dior’s ateliers in France worked the monogram into luggage and small leather goods alike. The squared plaque and absence of a serial code further anchor it in Bohan’s long, quietly influential era.

Constructed in jacquard fabric with leather trim and gold-tone hardware, this handheld coin purse shows minor edge wear but remains clean inside. The double compartment design keeps contents organised, and the secure kiss-lock closure holds fast. A focused piece of Dior’s monogram history, sized for a pocket or a clutch.
