For this commission the customer asked if I could copy the size and layout of their existing wallet as closely as possible.
I borrowed the original and measured up to make an accurate pattern. To match the original wallet (which was very thin) every leather piece needed to be hand skived to the correct thickness. The smooth, strong, fine grained goat leather from Le Prevo in Newcastle was perfect to make the finished wallet sturdy and slim.
The lining was a very understated brown to match the leather, though I do offer many other colours/prints on request. A strong drill fabric was used for the coin pocket to increase durability.
