My favorite compact zip wallet, made from dark green reverse horse culatta. One side has those beautiful shell cordovan wrinkles, with white residue from the tanning process — it’s natural wax, and it’ll disappear as you use it. The other side shows off the roughout texture. Inside, you'll find two spacious card slots hidden in a lining made of bright purple vegetable-tanned goat leather. The outer shell’s full-grain side is used on the inside. You can even turn the lining inside out if you need to search the wallet thoroughly — a small detail I really like. The goat leather is also burnished and polished on the flesh side, so it just feels smooth and nice in your hand. This is a very compact wallet, about 7 × 10 × 1.5 cm.
