What a great little item this truly is!
I ordered three of varying colours at the same time (at £12 you can't really go wrong). But what you actually get is a quite lovely product. They're like little works of art!
Seriously! They are made out of what is perhaps the softest leather I've ever felt. And then there's the design - which is lovely as well as practical. And they have actually been "designed" not just thrown together.
Each wallet is contained within its own sturdy, but elegant presentation box. The design, is called the "Safari" and the logo of an Acacia tree is printed on the box, embossed on the inside below the credit card holders, and forms part of the design of the gorgeous, gold, silk-like material that lines the two bank-note compartments. When I say "printed on the box", the logo is actually embossed on a very thin square of real leather, stuck to a panel on top of the box. Now there's a nice touch!
Two of the one's that I bought were two-tone which is very pleasing and they are made of of the same, very soft-to-touch leather on the inner faces, as on the outer face (so no cheapskating there!). Another nice touch is with the divider for the two bank-note compartments. The bottom two-thirds is made of the same silky material as the rest of the compartment, but the top third is made of a broad strip of the same very soft leather, but so thin you can feel your own fingerprints through it!
The box even has a nice design on the inside, with the Acacia logo, and the bearing the words:
"This product is handcrafted by Lichfield Leather using the finest quality leathers and synthetic materials"
In the wallet, you do get the customary credit-card sized inserts that you get with all wallets, but these too have the Acacia logo. That should tell you something about Lichfield Leather - using cheapo, blank card inserts isn't good enough for them so they have their own made!
I remember buying a leather wallet in Spain once. These are far, far superior than anything I saw there. And, english bank notes actually fit properly, so it isn't just made for the smaller Euro notes.
So for very little money, I've purchased what is easily the most beautiful, elegant, highest quality wallets I've ever seen. Pity I bought them as presents. I just love 'em and I want one too!
