Cordovan

Cordovan is a super super nice leather made from the hind quarters of a horse. It's known for it's longevity, and it's ability to be reconditioned to almost new from almost any state of disrepair. It's also known for being the most expensive leather in the world, and because only two tanneries make it using a 6 month tanning process, this is usually true. I got some in this week, and carefully made a wallet to feel out the material. I lined the bill slot with some antique fabric I've been stashing away- it's a beautiful woven design c. 1855-1862. It's such nice stuff! Wallet is available in the shop now, for a special price of $132.
