Gorgeous, Minimal Wallet Cut From One Piece Of Leather

Why is it that the simplest, plainest designs always cost the most? Possibly since the consequent magnificence comes from lots of hard work. Or may be it's only that the most appropriate products use the most appropriate tender materials. Whatever the reason, we contingency have this wonderfully elementary wallet, notwithstanding its $90 cost tag.

The billfold–by Noah Lambert–is done from a singular square of "5oz unfeeling sunburned check tanned hide from Wickett Craig of Pennsylvania." It is cut and folded, and only stitched at the ends. This poverty in building not only creates it look good, but it keeps it tough: where do wallets always break? Along the seams. The Lambert wallet has only two.

I admire that you have to glance at the assorted photos before you can work out only how the thing works. In the end, you'll interpret the cinema sufficient to see that the Uni-Fold wallet, as it's called, has a long slot for bills and two smaller, inner pockets for cards and other junk.

I wish one. Sure, it's so costly you won't be left with much allowance to keep in it, but on the other hand, it'll probably final you forever.
