SIZE APPROX:
H 145mm W 105mm when folded.
Designed to fit standard sized passports up to 5 inches x 3.5 inches.
DESIGN:
Using Oak-Tanned leather produced in Devon (will age naturally and develop a unique patina). The wallet flexes and accommodates up to 8 cards and plenty of cash / boarding pass as well as a passport.
PROCESS:
The entire piece is built by hand from my workshop, no machines are used at any stage.
The leather is measured and cut in order to incorporate the natural markings of the hide. After this the individual pieces are hand-sewn using the saddle stitch method – 2 needles and thread used simultaneously to create the strongest bond – if one thread breaks the work will not unravel.
Finally the raw edges are bevelled and burnished using beeswax to form smooth, strong edges that will wear naturally over time.
