Leather ink wash painting. Feel its bleeding, brushstrokes, and tonal variations.

This piece is a work of art in itself, inviting you to appreciate its deeply unique, textured "canvas." With time and use, it will reveal richer hues, gradually transforming into a leather piece that reflects your personal style, fostering a deeper affection for it. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4819/45396268855_59fce49e89.jpg The Short Wallet 2.0 features a two-fold design, essentially a pocket-sized wallet. To achieve a slimmer profile, the coin compartment has been scaled down to avoid overlapping with the card slots, without compromising daily usability. Perhaps it's time to graduate from carrying a noisy jumble of coins. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4810/45396268605_0d78fd7e2a.jpg The coin compartment is designed for simple opening and closing. While the absence of buttons or zippers might feel a bit unsecured, rest assured that the flap securely encloses the coins, preventing any accidental spills. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4806/44492220910_52b2f54b68.jpg Furthermore, banknotes can be stored without folding, offering a more spacious and comfortable place for your money. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4854/46308942321_2d5a6e7614.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4876/45396268685_c2e10c7100.jpg There are six card slots, ingeniously designed to hold your cards. The card section also features a flap, concealing any clutter and presenting a neat impression when the wallet is opened. **About SHOSA** https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7588/16845715016_e75b1173ee_c.jpg SHOSA presents a collection of seamless wallets and cardholders, embodying the Japanese traditional concepts of respect and thoughtful consideration for others through the principles of "FUKUSA" and "ORIGATA." https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7620/16870582521_e51c18942b_o.jpg "FUKUSA," a traditional cloth used for gift wrapping. "ORIGATA," a method of wrapping using a single sheet of paper without any cutting or gluing. SHOSA, meaning "to wrap" in Japanese, combines these two Japanese concepts with the meticulous craftsmanship of traditional Japanese carpenters, merging design and Japanese aesthetics to subtly simplify complex structures. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7288/16845714906_f46e3bbab8_c.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJzANlCin8c Country of Origin - Japan Place of Manufacture - Japan Product Material - Vegetable tanned steer-hide leather Product Dimensions - W115 x H105 x D20mm (Fully opened approx: 340mm) Internal Structure - Coin pocket x 1 / Bill compartment x 1 / Card slots x 6 ***Notes - ** ***The leather used is natural cowhide, which is not intentionally sanded or coated to preserve its original natural grain.
