Vintage Givenchy 4G Logo Leather Bifold Wallet Late 1970s Black

Paris, late 1970s — the city’s energy distilled into a grid of movement and
lines, reflected here in the crisp black leather and gold-tone corner hardware of
this Givenchy bifold wallet. The exterior is marked only by the embossed 4G
logo, a detail that aligned the maison’s accessories with the new graphic mood
of the decade. A gold-tone snap closure secures the silhouette, understated yet
distinctly architectural in the hand.
Inside, the wallet is lined in black fabric with a single ID window, a zip
pocket for coins, and two slip compartments for bills or cards. The gold script
“Givenchy” signature sits in the corner—no city, no flourish, just the house
name pressed into the lining.
This wallet dates to the Hubert de Givenchy era, circa the late 1970s to the mid-1980s,
when the maison’s small leather goods were stripped down to their essential elements: leather,
hardware, and the 4G monogram, all visible here. Light surface wear on the
leather; the hardware retains its shine, and the structure remains solid.
