The opening is finished with a folded edge to prevent scratching your hands or making card insertion difficult. * Features a pure brass crab hook and brass D-ring. * Stitched with premium French linen thread; custom orders allow for thread color changes. * As natural cowhide is used, minor scars or insect marks are normal and will be avoided as much as possible during production. * Dimensions: Cardholder body - Length 12.5 cm (excluding D-ring) x Width 7.5 cm. * The lanyard is a single layer of leather, approximately 40 cm long (excluding hook), with an adjustable length buckle.

Note 1: It is recommended to laminate or apply a protective film to photos before inserting them, as ink may transfer to the plastic sleeve under certain usage conditions. Note 2: As this premium dyed vegetable-tanned leather is processed naturally, please avoid contact with water. Continued use after the leather absorbs water may cause color to fade. If the leather gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally before further use. Note 3: The arabesque leather carving is hand-drawn and carved, so each product will have slight variations. This item is made to order.
