Saddle Brown Dumont Leather Cardholder
Although we live in a highly digitized world, a wallet is still an essential everyday item and the easiest way to carry cash and cards. And on those occasions when you don’t want to carry a full-sized bifold or coat wallet, or if you are a minimalist who prefers to travel as lightly as possible, you don’t need to sacrifice the convenience of your wallet. Fort Belvedere is proud to offer this elegant slim wallet card carrier for those moments when you only want the essentials.
First Quality Leather
The uncorrected full-grain leather used in this card carrier comes exclusively from English bulls. Why does that matter? When cows give birth, their hides become stretched, distorting the appearance of the leather. Bull hides have no such defects and preserve the natural, unadulterated appearance of the leather without the need for artificial correction.
Artisanal Italian Tannery
These hides were tanned and prepared by a heritage Italian tannery that has been in operation for over a century. In addition to its dedication to producing only the finest open-pored leathers in the grand tradition of Italian workmanship, this tannery is also devoted to sustainable harvesting, fair labor practices, and minimizing its negative environmental impact.
Stunning Tipped Grain Texture
Our Dumont leather features a stunning tipped grain effect, which creates the appearance of a heavily textured pebbled leather but with a soft, smooth feel. Unlike other leathers, in which this effect is achieved through machine embossing, our tipped grain effect is achieved naturally through milling during the tanning process. With no full topcoat covering, you are able to experience the leather itself directly with every touch.
Becomes More Beautiful with Age
Because of its pebbled surface, this saddle brown Dumont leather card carrier will resist scratches to some extent despite its lack of a thick topcoat. However, when scratches are made, they will only contribute to the unique beauty of the wallet, eventually being subsumed by the waxes and oils of the leather as tonal variations of the original color. As a result, with time and use, this card carrier will become its own work of art, a unique accessory that fully tells your story.
Warm Saddle Brown
This card carrier has been dyed a warm saddle brown. Thanks to our aniline-dyeing process, the dye has been fully absorbed into the leather in a procedure that can take over 12 hours, ensuring a long-lasting color that won’t fade and will bring out the patina of the leather as the carrier ages. Stately and versatile, the grained texture of this wallet makes it ideal for casual occasions, but thanks to the richness of the brown it can also work well with more formal ensembles.
Incredible Color Depth
Thanks to our dyeing process and proprietary waxes and oils applied to the leather, this saddle brown Dumont leather card carrier offers an unparalleled depth and “pull up” effect: when viewed at different angles or when the leather is gently stretched, you see the full range of colors and textures present within the leather.
Elegant Contrast Stitching
Our cream thread provides a stately pop of color against the saddle brown of this card carrier. Not only does this create visual interest, it highlights the piece’s incredible workmanship: every neat and fine back-and-forth stitch is on full display. The workmanship is even more impressive when you realize that the artisans can only see one side when they stitch those wallets, so it requires extra care and skill to sew these together.
