Vintage Etro Paisley Coated Canvas Bifold Wallet c. 1996 Rust Green

Rust, deep green, and brown swirl together across the coated canvas exterior, the
surface patterned with Etro’s signature paisley—a motif drawn from the brand’s
vast textile archive on Via Spartaco in Milan, rendered here in the saturated,
earthy palette that defined the label’s 1990s accessories. The gold-tone snap
closure at the front is finished with a stylized “E” motif, while brown leather trim
frames the compact bifold silhouette.
Inside, a beige fabric lining features two slip pockets and six card
slots. The interior shows signs of wear and staining, and there is visible scuffing on
the corners; all structural elements remain intact. No logo or branding appears
on the exterior or lining—only a heat-stamped serial and date code anchor this
piece to September 1996, a time when Etro’s paisley goods offered Milan’s
bohemian aristocracy an alternative to the city’s prevailing minimalism.
