As many knows that Obbi Good Label started off making handmade leathercrafts with aesthetics in Native American style. And slowly evolve into 4 main elements of Gentlemen, Contemporary, Native Travellers and Workwear, providing to a greater mass of preferences.

Because we are trained from junior craftsmen the way of Native American's leathercraftings, it is natural that we are able to produce handmade silvercrafts too.

Silversmithing is a way of life just like leathercraftings. Everything from melting, molding, finishing are handmade processes which requires much concerntration and experience.

Today, I'd like to introduce our very own Silver products. All handmade by OGL, using 92.5% of silver content and is heavier than normal sterling silver.

Received this old Samurai Arc wallet from a friend to do some repairs.
The wallet is well used, fully indigo stained, aging with petina. After repairing, I did some servicing on it, cleaning it with saddle soap.

Below are some pics, showing before and after effect.

After. Cleaned as much as possible, a huge difference can be seen on the corners. The rest are too stubborn, but it is such that adds characters to Vegetable Tanned Leathers.

No one would believe if I tell you I have been carrying my cash and cards in my pocket for the last few months.

Funnily enough, i am always making something or the other, but never enough time for making a wallet for myself.

Finally made one for myself. Though the design is not something new to me, but this is the first time I am using the English veg tan ever since I bought it months ago.

Unlike the darker, stiffer Hermann Oak, this leather is supple on the surface, and has a luxurious feel to it. Though the wallet design is simple, executing it on such beautiful leather made the long process very enjoyable.

With Obbi Good Label's aesthetic and leather crafting techniques, these designs of Element Long Wallet clearly shows the world what we are good at - Originality with style.
Made of Natural Veg Black, London Tan and Natural Veg of 5/6oz, with new styling leather trim on top corner.
These 'bad ass' long wallets are a definite 'stand-out' in crowds. Perfect for raw denim lovers.
