Everything measured.
A handmade leather bifold wallet in two Woody hides — green outside, wine red within — made by hand in Sri Lanka.
Green and wine red should not work together, and on most materials they do not. What makes it hold here is the grain: both hides carry the same deep Woody texture, so the two colours read as the same leather in two moods rather than two different materials stuck together. You only catch the red when the wallet is open, which is the way I prefer it.
What it holds
- 6 card slots
- 2 hidden side pockets
- 1 full-length cash pocket
- 4.3” × 3.5” closed
How it is made
Every edge bevelled, sanded and burnished by hand. Every seam a real saddle stitch — two needles crossing in each hole, so a cut thread still holds. Both hides hold their colour hard, so this pairing looks much the same in year three as it does on day one.
Repaired for as long as you own it, and the labour is on us.
Straight answers.
When will it reach me?
+
Within Sri Lanka — dispatched within 72 working hours.
Anywhere else — the rate depends on the country, so it is quoted per order. Message +94 77 969 6203 on WhatsApp with the piece and where it is going, and we will send the exact figure before you pay a rupee.
What if the cards don't fit?
+
In the first week the slots are usually tight. That is normal — the leather has to mould to what you carry, and it will.
If it still is not right after that, send it back. We will fix it and send it back to you.
Can you repair it later?
+
Yes — for as long as you own it, and we do not charge for the labour. Not for the first year. For as long as it is yours.
You cover only the materials a repair actually needs, and the shipping both ways.
How do I look after it?
+
Condition it roughly every six months. That is the whole routine — more than that softens the fibres and the piece loses its shape.
Your first three conditionings we do for you. Send it in and cover the shipping; the work is ours. Or do it at home — see leather care.
Why does hand stitching cost more?
+
A machine lock-stitch is one thread looping through itself. Cut it anywhere and the seam runs. A saddle stitch is two needles crossing in every hole — cut one thread and it still holds.
It takes far longer by hand, and that time is the whole of the price difference.
