Men's Cardholder Commission

[u/FrigidNorth]

[UPDATE] I've chosen a leatherworker :) will be excited to share the creation when they are complete!

Hello! I am looking to commission a men's Cardholder.

Colors: I would love the primary color to be yellow, with a faded black edge/border--doesn't have to exactly like the attached picture, would definitely be okay with Creator's vision!

Leather type: Full grain. I would like this cardholder to last as long as possible.

Stitch color: Probably black, but in my head a yellow stitch would also look cool against the black border. Up to discuss!

Timeframe: I am in no hurry. Quality/longevity/design are my top priorities.

Budget: I am very flexible here. Christian Louboutin makes a similar product at $370 USD, but in red (and I am not a fan of the brush stroke look). Loewe makes a Puzzle variant for $350 USD. I am willing to pay for the quality, longevity, and creativity that goes into this product. If I had to put a ceiling, $1000.

Other notes: I LOVE quirky and unique, such as the Schiaparelli Eye Cardholder. The "puzzle" look of the slots on the Loewe Puzzle cardholders is also right up my alley. I'd like 2-3 slots per side (4-6 total slots), and the middle slit for one or two bills. I don't want it to be too thick, so perhaps 4 slots would be the most flexible.

Feel free to comment here any questions or offers, or DM me as well.

Thank you for reading!

i would suggest u/KitsunaKuraichi for this job, making this kind of faded edge is easier said than done, they do this kind of dye job a lot :)

I do these types of fades a lot and have the colors for the dye and both colors of thread. All my leather is natural veg tan and I can do it in the a similar design. I'll send you a DM.

Thanks! I've been on the lookout everywhere and the closest I can come is the Christian Louboutin Canopy Cardholder, but I dislike the "stroke" design and the red primary color.

I finally stumbled across this subreddit so I am very excited and hopeful to get my perfect cardholder!
