Phoenix Wallet

Recommended Posts

I just finished a wallet especially for the Virginia Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Silent Auction. The Phoenix Wallet is a nine-pocket bifold made from 4/5 oz and 2/3 oz Hermann Oak veg-tanned leather. I tooled the Phoenix and painted it by hand, then saddle-stitched up to four layers. Whew! When it was done, I had a beer and rose from the ashes.

Very nice and for a good cause.  Great detail on your carving.  Especially love the paint you added.

Stunning work, I’m sure it will raise a pretty penny at auction.  I do have one little question, after you carved the bird did you bevel the lines or just added paint?
