No.09 Card Case【Rugato】

A business card holder exuding an elegant impression and commanding trust from the first encounter, possessing a calm and dignified presence. The main body features exquisite shoulder leather, akin to a beautiful jewel, finished by Belgium's sole tannery using Swiss raw hides. The interior is luxuriously appointed with lustrous domestic tanned leather. While its appearance is minimalist and refined, the main compartment can hold approximately 40 business cards. It also includes a free pocket, offering ample storage. The striking contrast between the transparent midnight blue and camel orange leather creates a unique beauty and sophistication, resulting in a highly practical item. 【Main Body Leather】 The main body utilizes "Rugato" shoulder leather (Color: Midnight Blue), produced by Tanneries Mazur, the only tannery in Belgium. This leather, crafted from high-quality Swiss raw hides raised near the Alps using traditional vegetable tanning methods, is characterized by its beautiful, transparent luster and natural, deep color variations (colloquially known as "tiger stripes"). Its vibrancy has earned it the nickname "Jewel of Leather." 【Interior Leather】 The interior is made from domestic adult cow vegetable-tanned leather (Color: Camel Orange), known for its transparency and beautiful coloration. With use, it will deepen in color and develop a rich luster, much like a ripe orange. 【Reliable Storage Capacity】 While maintaining a sleek overall design, the holder offers a practical storage capacity of approximately 40 business cards. The gusset extends to the bottom, creating a slim, box-like shape that neatly accommodates business cards. 【Front Pocket】 A free pocket is provided in front of the main storage compartment. This is perfectly sized for holding a business card received during an exchange. 【Flap Back Pocket】 A free pocket is also available on the back of the flap. This allows you to tuck your own business card, making it easy to retrieve during exchanges. 【Beautiful Edges with "Kirime Hon-guri" Finish】 "Kirime Hon-guri" is the most traditional and valuable method for finishing leather edges. This technique involves shaving the edge flat, then repeatedly applying dyes and natural glues or waxes while polishing. This process creates edges that appear and feel as if they are part of a single piece of leather, even when multiple layers are involved. As this method is time-consuming and requires significant skill and knowledge of leather characteristics, it serves as a testament to the artisan's hand-finishing, distinguishing it from mass-produced items. ====================== 【Product Specifications】 Size: Exterior = Height 7.0 × Width 11.0 × Thickness 2.4 cm Open Height 14.4 cm Weight: Approx. 56g Materials: Main Body = Belgian Shoulder Leather (Color: Midnight Blue) Interior = Japanese Tanned Leather (Color: Camel Orange) Metal Parts: Glove Snap (Brass finish) Features: Card Space, Free Pockets × 2 【SPECIFICATION】 size = height 7 × width 11 × thickness 2.4 cm opening height 14.4 cm weight = about 56 g materials leather = belgian shoulder leather (color : midnight blue) japanese cow leather (color : camel orange) metal parts = glove snap (color : brass) features = card pocket ×3 ====================== ※This product is made to order and will take approximately 1 month from the time of your order. ● The color of the product shown may appear different from the actual item due to your screen environment.
