The natural tanning process of leather wallets
2012-02-20Wallets tend to have a lot of different caracteristics. Some are not even visible when you first see them, other evolves over time.
One thing with leather wallets is that they tend to gain a beautiful worn surface and color over time. Kind of like a natural, but slow, tanning process.
We got a mail from Jesse showing a wallet he made for himself. This illustrates the changes over two years. Beautiful!
Thanks Jesse, for sharing this piece of beauty!

Paperwallet – Artist collection
2012-02-10Wallets in paper have a tendency not to be as durable as, say leather wallets, or the ones in metal.
This artist collection of paper wallets claims to be faux paper though. Call me ignorant buy I’ve never heard of the material Tyvek before, but they claim it’s “almost indestructible”, “flexible” and “resistant-to-damn-near-everything”.Trust them or not – but the design is powerful.
$20 over at Cool Material (nice price!)

An odd one: The William Wallet from Wintercheck Factory
2011-11-01Innovative concepts are always welcome. It’s not always that they succeed in being functional though, but this ones seems to make it. And, it’s also visually very pleasing.

The connoisseur wallet
2011-09-20From Makr comes this very delicious wallet / card case: “Horizon Three Wallet“. It’s very hand made, edge painted and polished to perfection. The leather is Saddle Tan Horween® Chromexcel®. Just look at that – two “®”‘s in the material name!
The price is in comparison. A hefty $90. But hey, it’s VERY beautiful!
