Céline Vintage Celine Smooth Leather Bifold Wallet c. 1998 Black

A gold-tone circular snap adorns the smooth black leather front, its surface
engraved in serif capital letters with “CELINE PARIS”—no accents, no flourishes, just the
minimalist clarity that defined the house’s accessories in the late 1990s. The wallet unfolds
to reveal a black fabric-lined interior, featuring a zippered pocket and an array
of card slots to keep your daily essentials organized.
The finish is quietly refined, with light surface wear along the edges and
on the hardware; the structure remains crisp, and the snap closure is both practical and
statement-making. Produced c. 1998, this piece sits at the intersection of Céline’s
French heritage and Michael Kors’s arrival—a moment when American sportiness
began to influence Parisian leather goods, evident here in the wallet’s
functional discipline and unadorned lines.
