Everything measured.
A handmade leather bifold wallet in Ceylon buffalo black with a Woody green interior, made by hand in Sri Lanka.
Black on the outside, green when you open it. That is a deliberate order — the panel other people see stays quiet, and the surprise is kept for the person who actually owns the thing.
The Ceylon buffalo is our house leather, made here on the island. It is firm out of the box and breaks in within weeks, holding a crisp fold where a softer hide would go slack. The Woody green inside brings a deeper, more open grain against it.
What it holds
- 6 card slots
- 2 hidden side pockets
- 1 full-length cash pocket
- Approximately 11 cm × 8.5 cm
Both hides hold their colour well, so this one looks much the same in year three as it does today. 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.
