#leather wallets

I rarely get time to make dragon scale wallets outside orders, especially the bifolds. This one found a home shortly after being finished. It was made from natural veg tan leather and given purple scales with a black edge fade. The hand stitching was done with ritza tiger thread and the edges burnished with beeswax.

This design has 3 card, 2 hidden, and 1 ID pocket. It also has a spot for cash in the back. A classic bifold with a little draconic flair. I love the way the purple changed colors on different parts of the scales.

Gothic Yohji Yamamoto

Accessory collection

In the 1980s, in Paris, there was a legendary line born in the Yohji Yamamoto atelier. It was called Gothic Yohji Yamamoto. As a clothing label that was only available in Paris, it was only available for a short period of time, so its existence was not well known. This autumn, however, the line has been revived as a men's accessories line. The collection, reborn with a new concept, is not a reproduction of the items from that time, but rather inherits the mood, and includes leather and silver accessories.

In addition to the above, the lineup also includes basic items such as T-shirts. The key point is that all of the items use Gothic designs such as architecture, decoration, sculpture, and painting. The wallet, silver wallet chain, and key holder made of oil cow leather are decorated with bird motifs. The arrival of this new line, which complements the Yohji Yamamoto collection with its heavy presence, has written a new page in the brand's history.

The legendary Parisian line is back with a new look
