A deep Bordeaux red and a gathered leather ribbon give this vintage Salvatore Ferragamo
wallet its character. The long rectangular shape keeps the effect restrained, with
a small metal accent at the center of the ribbon and a softly gleaming leather surface.
It is a lovely alternative to a plain black wallet, especially if the inside of 
your bag deserves a little color, too.

The fold-over design opens to divided compartments, card slots and a central zipped
section. The matching interior keeps the look cohesive, while the elongated shape
offers more separation than a compact cardholder. Fine creasing in the leather softens
the otherwise tidy silhouette.

Ribbon details have a particular place in Ferragamo’s design history. Fiamma Ferragamo
introduced the bow-trimmed Vara shoe in 1978, as documented by the [Ferragamo Foundation](https://fondazione.ferragamo.com/en/fiamma-ferragamo).
This wallet’s leather ribbon has a quieter, more sculptural character than a fabric
bow, but shares that interest in turning a small decorative detail into the focus
of an accessory.

## Condition

Vintage and pre-owned, with visible creasing and light surface wear to the leather.
The Bordeaux finish, ribbon detail, back and interior are shown in the photographs.
This listing is for the wallet only.

## Styling

Bordeaux works beautifully against camel, navy and charcoal, but it is just as good
with a pink bag or a flash of leopard print. Let it sit alongside polished leather
accessories for a coordinated look, or use its formal shape to offset a casual canvas
tote.
