The story

Eight card slots, because the number eight has followed the house from the start. Vegetable-tanned calfskin, because it is the leather that rewards being carried: it darkens, softens and takes on the shape of the pocket it lives in.

The edges are burnished and painted by hand in several coats; the stitching is a saddle stitch, worked with two needles so that a single broken thread never unravels the seam.
