Purple has no business looking this good.
No. 55 is a vertical three-pocket card holder cut from Rocado shell cordovan in a rich, jewel-toned purple — but what makes this piece genuinely extraordinary is the two-texture contrast at play. The lower panel is smooth and saturated, a deep violet that catches the light with that signature shell cordovan sheen. The upper panel shifts to a mottled, almost organic texture — earthy warmth bleeding through the purple like a burl wood grain, or the surface of something ancient and found.
Tonal purple stitching ties it together, threading through both panels in a single clean line that lets the leather do the talking.
This is a piece that rewards a second look. And a third. The contrast isn't loud — it unfolds slowly, the kind of detail that makes someone lean in and ask wait, what is that?
Rocado shell cordovan is among the finest available anywhere in the world. Dense, structured, and built to age over decades rather than seasons. The purple will deepen and mellow with carry, the textures will soften into each other, and the piece will become something entirely your own over time.
No. 55 exists once. That's it.
What makes No. 55 special:
Genuine Rocado shell cordovan — smooth purple lower, mottled textured upper
One-of-one tonal two-texture contrast combination
Tonal purple stitching for a refined, seamless finish
Vertical three-pocket format — organized carry, minimal footprint
Handcrafted in Canada by a single maker
J.A.B. Leatherworks stamp — your mark of authenticity
Ready to ship. Truly one of a kind.
