It has two card slots that take a couple of cards, an ID window, a folded cash slot that also takes a card or two if you prefer and has an RFID-blocking fabric lining for additional security.
The wallet is handmade from quality cork fabric and comes in a variety of colours. As I am busy doing Christmas markets, my available stock is changing all the time. Please message me and I’ll let you know what colours are currently available.

Plant-based, Vegan and Sustainable Cork is a plant
Cork is a plant-based, vegan alternative to leather and is suitable for anyone looking for products with more environmentally-friendly characteristics. It is a renewable resource harvested from the Cork Oak tree that absorbs CO2 as it grows and can be composted at the end of its life. There is more information about how cork fabric is manufactured and its eco-friendly credentials on my All About Cork page.
All purchases are shipped using recycled or recyclable materials.
Handmade
This wallet is handmade in my small workshop in the West Country. I don't mass produce my items and I like to play with colours and patterns so there aren't loads of items that look the same - effectively making your purchase a 'limited edition'!
If you like any of my products but would prefer it in a different colour, size, or with a different lining, I can normally make items to order. Take a look at my Made For You page for more information.
Care of your cork product
Cork fabric is a natural product that can be cleaned with a damp cloth or mild detergent where necessary. Like any natural product, and similar to leather, it will soften and develop a patina with age and use.
Cork fabric is what is known as a self-healing fabric that is often used in patterns that involve 'raw' edges (not sewn into an interior seam). The manufacturing process involves laminating very thin layers of cork onto a cotton or polycotton backing.
I finish any raw edges with a sealer to minimise the chance of the cotton backing fraying. In the event that you notice 'wispy' threads, despite every effort to prevent it, please don't be concerned, it does not affect the integrity of the product and they can easily be dealt with by carefully and briefly running a flame over them to singe them off.
