Sincerely recommended by the Tokyo "Takumics" workshop, this is a creation born of confidence!** **※ "Palma" is Italian for palm, referring to the wallet's compact size that fits perfectly in one hand. This is how it got its name.** https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/22.jpg **Perfectly Sized, Fits in One Hand** With its ideal proportions, this compact wallet is easy for anyone to use, even women! Whether you're commuting, shopping, carrying a small bag, or prefer cashless payments, it's your ideal choice. The hand-stamped logo on the outer pocket is not foil-stamped, creating a subtly understated Japanese aesthetic. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/26.jpg **A Discreet Yet Tactile Dedicated Card Slot** A front external pocket, approximately 4.6mm deep, is designed to keep card information discreet. It's perfect for storing your commuter IC card or frequently used cards. The upper edge of the pocket is curved for easy card retrieval. A line is embossed along the upper edge of the card slot, lending the piece a sense of refinement and meticulous craftsmanship. This edge-lining technique, known as "ネン引き" (nen-biki) in Japanese leathercraft, involves using a heated tool to press along the leather edge, gradually tightening the overall appearance and creating a delicate contour. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/38.jpg **A Leather Pull Tab That Enhances the Texture** Made from the same leather as the wallet, the matching color pull tab is about 4.5cm long. It not only draws the eye but also makes opening and closing the zipper more convenient. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/20.jpg **An Inner Pocket Designed for Easy Coin Access** The curved, shallow design of the coin pocket makes it easy to see and retrieve coins. Each side of the inner compartment can hold cards or folded banknotes, ensuring everything is neatly organized and has its place. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/24.jpg **Exclusive Foil-Stamped Logo Inside the Inner Pocket** The "TAIWAM EDITION" marks this as a limited color designed and produced by Tokyo's "Takumics" workshop specifically for the Taiwanese market! The upper edge of the inner pocket also features the same edge-lining as the outer pocket, showcasing consistent craftsmanship inside and out, a testament to the artisan's dedication. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/36.jpg **Meticulously Finished Edges** The cut edges of the leather are referred to as "コバ" (Koba) in Japanese leathercraft. After cutting, leather fibers can remain, affecting the aesthetic. Artisans apply a special agent to polish these edges until they are smooth, then color them to create a lustrous, sleek finish. This is a time-consuming and painstaking process, reflecting the culmination of the artisan's handiwork. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/43.jpg **Highest Grade Japanese YKK EXCELLA Metal Zipper** Each zipper tooth is polished, adding a dazzling and luxurious touch. Compared to standard zippers, the radiant gold-bronze teeth are densely packed with small gaps, conveying a satisfying heft when the zipper is moved. The crown-shaped YKK metal pull tab, paired with a standard (Non-Lock) metal zipper head, is both durable and stylish.

Scratches, wrinkles, or vein marks are unavoidable on cowhide and sheepskin. These natural characteristics are skillfully incorporated into the tanning process. ★ Leather grain patterns are naturally formed and can have color variations. Therefore, colors may differ depending on the specific part of the hide. ★ Please be aware that applying leather conditioning cream in the early stages of use may diminish the suede texture. ★ Please note that leather color may transfer to valuable clothing! https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/41.jpg **Italian-Made Suede Vegetable-Tanned Leather** Crafted using traditional Italian "Vacchetta" vegetable-tanning techniques, it is infused with ample oils, making the leather dense yet soft and supple. The most prized section of "full-cut" vegetable-tanned leather, known as "square hide," is treated with a fine brushing process to achieve a soft, delicate texture akin to goose down. Despite its linear grain and oily feel, it possesses a sophisticated matte finish. With continued use, the color deepens and matures, developing a unique luster characteristic of polished leather, allowing you to fully enjoy the changes that come with time. Furthermore, the tannery has received a Gold-rated sustainability certification from the Leather Working Group (LWG). https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/Pinkoi/brand_image_1.jpg **Takumics Artisan Spirit** **Skilled Craftsmanship, Unisex Design, and Vintage Style - Design Philosophy** The brand name "Takumics" is inspired by the workshop owner's Japanese Romanized name "Takumi" (巧 in Japanese Kanji, meaning skill) and the English word "Technic." The brand logo features a seahorse wearing a crown. The seahorse's appearance evokes a horse or dragon head, symbolizing the Year of the Dragon. Seahorses not only appear in Greek mythology but are also precious traditional Chinese medicine ingredients and symbols of safe childbirth. The seahorse's crown is designed around a "hammer," symbolizing the artisan. We founded "Takumics" with the goal of becoming top artisans, dedicated to creating high-quality works that are cherished by their owners. https://image-cdn.qdm.cloud/site/q6678dd3dc1424/image/data/product/LZipperWallet_TW/40.jpg **Gift Box Packaging ★ Brand New Design with Embossed Logo** Original Japanese retail logo-embossed kraft paper box – the product is first placed in a non-woven dust bag, then into an original logo gift box, hand-stamped with foil by the workshop artisan.
