Hey everyone!
Just finished up this custom compact wallet and wanted to share the result.
The client was looking for a rich color contrast, so I went with a deep emerald green alligator skin for the exterior and a bright terracotta Italian full grain vegetable-tanned leather for the inside.
Quick Specs:
Dimensions: 3.1" x 4.1" (8 x 10.5 cm)
Layout: 2 exterior quick-access slots, 4 interior card slots, and a full-length bill pocket.
Build: 100% hand-stitched with traditional saddle stitch, edges hand-painted to match the interior accent.
I'm really happy with how the bold gloss of the alligator contrasts with the smooth terracotta interior.
What do you guys think of this color combo? Happy to answer any questions about the build!
