Celine Vintage Black Macadam Monogram Pebbled Coated Canvas Long Bifold Wallet

Vintage Celine Black Macadam Long Bifold Wallet, likely produced during the 1980s to early 1990s (Pre-LVMH era). The key features align perfectly with Celine's historical production standards from this era. Canvas Print: The exterior pattern features the Macadam monogram (the precursor to the modern Triomphe print) in a dark charcoal/black coated canvas base with a caramel-colored outline. The texture shows a distinct, uniform pebbled grain characteristic of authentic Celine coated canvas. The Brand Stamp: The interior gold foil hot-stamping reads CELINE / PARIS in its period-accurate, sans-serif font. The spacing, clean execution, and slight indentation into the smooth leather interior match authentic vintage production. The Zipper: The zipper pull features the CLIX logo stamped vertically. CLIX was a high-quality European zipper manufacturer frequently used by luxury houses like Celine, Balenciaga, and Karl Lagerfeld during the 1970s and 1980s. Finding a period-correct third-party zipper manufacturer like CLIX is an excellent sign of authenticity, as counterfeiters rarely replicate these specific vintage hardware brands. The Stitching: The stitching across the card slots, edges, and inner seams is exceptionally straight, tightly spaced, and consistent, demonstrating authentic luxury craftsmanship rather than mass-produced imitation work.
