The Bakewell Handmade Leather Wallet

Hand-crafted from Pueblo leather, sourced from the prestigious Italian tannery Badalassi Carlo. The Bakewell begins with a unique, slightly coarse matte texture. With every use, the leather transforms, naturally polishing its fibres to develop a rich, smooth patina that darkens in tone and reflects your unique history.

The wallet features three internal card slots, ideal for storing credit cards or business cards. Behind the left-hand card slots is a full-width slip pocket, perfect for keeping folded notes or bills. On the opposite side is a sleeve for extra bills, notes or cards. The asymmetric layout creates a dynamic, modern, and engaging visual presence.

How it's made

The wallet is made from five cuts of leather with complementary coloured thread. Once cut, the internal cut-outs are sanded, bevelled and burnished. A piece of skived leather is used to separate the right-hand card slot, in an accent colour that mirrors the cover. At this point, I complete the debossing and personalisation.

Each piece is then adhered along the edges using water-based contact adhesive. Once dry, the stitching holes are punched and the panels are hand-stitched using 0.8mm Tiger Thread. The stitching is lightly hammered to lower its profile, then the outer edges are sanded, bevelled and burnished. Each wallet can take up to two hours to craft by hand.
