Behind The Craft
The steps behind every Izuki wallet.
Step 1
Cutting
An artisan will cut out the required pieces of leather from the roll of top-grain leather.
Step 2
Embossing
Pieces are embossed with our patented designs. The leather is set aside to cool down due to the heat of the embossing tool
Step 3
Skiving
Each piece of leather is put through the skiving machine to shave down any uneven parts. This is to ensure all pieces of leather are the same thickness.
Step 4
Attaching Lining
Lining is attached to the pieces of leather. A mix of canvas and RFID-blocking lining is used.
Step 5
Folding Edges
Edges are folded over the lining. This gives it a clean finish when you look inside the card holder. Even small details like this are handled with immense care.
Step 6
Hole-Punching
To prepare the wallet for stitching, the artisans punch sewing holes into them.
Step 7
Stitching
The different parts of the leather are sewn together, the most integral part of the card holder process.
Step 8
Edge Finishing
For a clean finish, the edges of the card holders are painted & polished.
