This is my version of the classic twin-pocket card holder. An elegant and practical card holder capable of holding up to 16 cards (8 on each side) as well as a few folded notes.

I make all pieces to order, myself and entirely by hand.

This one is made from Epsom Calfskin, a scratch resistant and durable, printed grain chrome-tanned leather.

Each item is made from 2 pieces of 30x30cm leather (1800sqcm total). The leather is bonded together resulting in 1 piece of 30x30cm double sided leather. A template is then used to hand cut the piece to the correct shape. A 1mm decorative line is creased along all edges of the external side.

All cut edges are then carefully sanded by hand to remove any imperfections and allow for a smooth finished edge. Next, the edges are carefully hand painted with a professional leather specific edge paint, paying close attention as not to over-apply and cause paint to bleed onto the inside colour. The paint is left to dry, after which it is sanded with a fine 800 grit sandpaper. Finally, the painted edges are finished with a heated fileteuse.
