Product Details

Your favourite novels, now in pocket-size.|--read-more--| This slim navy leather card holder shelves your essentials with a wink to Jane Austen, equal parts bookish and chic.

Crafted in soft, pebbled navy leather, the Academy Card Holder is trimmed with delicately stitched Jane Austen book-spine appliqués and a cameo motif. Despite its page-turning looks, it’s wonderfully practical: two card slots, a central slip pocket for folded notes or extra cards, and built-in RFID protection to keep your data well-behaved.

  • Premium navy pebble-grain leather

  • RFID-blocking to protect data

  • 2 card slots + slip pocket

  • Dimensions: 10 × 7 × 0.3 cm

  • Jane Austen book spine appliqués

Perfect for the commute, a theatre night, your favourite bookshop browse, or when a full wallet feels positively overwrought. It slips into any pocket or tiny bag without bulking the plot.

Add to basket and let your cards mingle with the literati.
