Sweet & Candy Tropical Forest Wallet

A flap, a press stud and a top zip on a 12.6 x 10 cm wallet

Two fastenings hold this wallet shut, and they work in different ways. The camel tongue folds down from the top and snaps onto a silver press stud stamped with a butterfly. Above it, a zip runs the full width of the upper edge, so the top compartment stays shut even while the flap is open. At 12.6 x 10 cm the whole thing still sits flat in a coat pocket rather than filling a handbag. If a printed finish is what appeals, our other printed wallets sit in the same part of the range.

Palm leaves at the back, a party scene at the front

The back panel is given over to a dense palm and fern print: pink and coral fronds crossing slate blue and charcoal ones on a pale pink ground, with a small woven label stitched along the lower edge. Turn the wallet over and the mood changes completely. A fawn and a leopard face each other across a round camel medallion, surrounded by palms, ferns and orange blooms worked in raised embroidery, with stitched lettering that reads like a party invitation.

The card holder inside the darker shell

Seen from the back, the printed panel sits within a darker outer shell, and the top of a beige card holder shows just above it. The two tones make it easy to tell which part you are reaching into. For loose change you would rather keep elsewhere, a separate coin purse takes over the job.

Pink, camel and a line of ivory stitching

Pink is the one constant across both faces, cut through with coral, slate blue and charcoal. Camel frames it twice: once at the flap, once along the bottom band, where an ivory zigzag whipstitch runs from edge to edge. The result reads as pink and multicolour: bright, but never loud.
