The gold leaf is applied even for the curved section of the wallet. As the width of our wallet is as thin as 1 cm, it fits nicely into your suit jacket.
There is: a card holder x13, paper money holder x2. Materials: Himeji leather, gold leaf, known as “Kinpaku-ichigou shoku” – gold leaf colour number 1 (based on the number, the amount of gold, silver and copper changes.) Made in Japan.
It may appeal to those who wear business suits often as well as who prefer thiner wallets.
We did a special treatment for the gold leaf part so that it won’t be peeled off. However because it’s just a gentle treatment because we don’t want to loose the color and luster, it will be peeled off little by little. Please consider it is a part of aging and enjoy the original leather and aged gold leaf.
Please be careful not to touch any sticky things, such as scotch tape, stickers etc. If you rub hard or with pointy things, you’ll damage the gold leaf part. It won’t be tolerant of water and humidity. Please wipe with a soft cloth if it gets wet. If it gets dirty, please wipe it gently with a soft cloth, but not to use any cream.
All products are hand made, so each of them are slightly different and it will take a while to be delivered to you. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
