No discount code has been issued. The price is part of the specification.

Leather: 2.4 mm full-grain shoulder. Vegetable-tanned twelve weeks.
Origin: Tannery in Tuscany — chosen lot, batch-marked.
Construction: Single piece, folded. Two interior slots. No lining.
Stitch: Hand-stitched edge in waxed linen, eight stitches per inch.
Edge: Beveled, sanded, burnished. Three passes.
Registry mark: Capsule blind-pressed at 120°C: W/S · ISSUE 001 · 047 / 080. The number carries the house.
Hardware: None. There is nothing to fail.
Patina: The tobacco deepens to oxblood over a decade. The corners round under the thumb. A repaired piece carries more history, not less.
Care: Wipe with a soft cloth. When the time comes, hand it back — the workshop repairs and re-registers.

“An object of custody. Made less for the season than for the person after you. Repair is not erasure — it is a record.”
