the bifold cardholder has been cut from a butter soft vegetable tanned cites certified genuine crocodile leather crust with a vast array of texture, a waxy pull up and a rotten corpse matte black dye treatment.
vegetable tanned leather is an ancient artisanal process that hinges on the delicate balance between timing and temperature. like a fine aged whiskey time is key, the careful balance of time allows the natural tannins such as tree bark to infuse, yielding rich colours and unparalleled durability. controlled cooling plays a crucial role in achieving that coveted texture and suppleness you come to expect.
crafted entirely by hand without the use of machines, the wallet features a classic bifold silhouette, with a large note compartment lined in a raw cut and washed japanese ramie linen. multiple card slots to the interior allow you to hold up to 12 cards. an open seam construction runs the length of the wallet and is backed by matching crocodile leather. each of the 849 stitch holes are individually spaced and punched by hand before the wallet is meticulously hand stitched with a hand waxed 0.65mm japanese linen thread.
the coin pocket option features a full length m4 riri zipper to the interior, which is adorned by a hand cut, hammered and shaped solid .925 sterling silver zipper pull, with a slow 10 hour oxidised finish.
the wallet highlights the natural grain and scars of the exotic leather.
