WALLET for Mr.J

Today I start doing wonderfull crocodile wallet
for Mr.J from New York.
Most expansive part of crocodile skin (chin part), baby calf for interior, "glove" stiching, red wine (ruby) color.
I sure it will be the great wallet.
Lets track produsing of the wallet...




Perfect Italian tanned crocodile is soft and wonderfull.





UPDATE February 4
Firstly I have make the interion of the wallet.



Every edges of the cardslot has burnished.
And every pocket has a linning made from very thin calf leather.
It calls "Yal" in russian. It is special leather for linning.





UPDATE February 7
The interior of the wallet is ready.


The US passport and passport of Russian Federation
have similar sizes :-)



It could be use like a passport cover.

Let me untroduce my special "glove stitching".
It loks like a double glove stithing on the front side. And it has look as normal stitching
on the inside.
This is stitching by hand.
And every stitch of this wallet is handmade

  1. Igor,

    I notice you have a nice attention to detail. The photograph of the skin was slightly rotated, so you rotated the box exactly 2 degrees. You therefore make the scales in the box PERFECTLY horizontal to keep the wallet symmetrical and to keep the scales in a straight line. I hope that you keep the scales in an even straight line when you are making the wallet also!
