Totême wallets and cardholders: the T-Lock wallet, the cardholder and the small leather goods

The small leather goods are where the Totême bag hardware meets the everyday. The T-Lock wallet and the T-Lock cardholder close with the same twist clasp as the T-Lock bags, so they match the bag they travel in. Around them sit the passport holder, the lipstick case and the keyring. They come in grained cow leather, croco-, lizard- and ostrich-embossed leather and palmellato patent leather, with leather interiors. 22 pieces on Coveti, $580 to $820, median $660. This page is each piece, the dimensions and the leathers.

The T-Lock wallet

A flap wallet that closes with the T-Lock twist clasp, the metal T that turns through a slot, the same clasp as the T-Lock bags. It measures 20 cm wide, 9.5 cm high and 2 cm deep, with a leather interior. It comes in grained tan and sienna, lizard-embossed brown, ostrich-embossed grey and palmellato patent black and cherry.

The T-Lock cardholder

The same clasp on a smaller card case: 11 cm wide, 9 cm high and 1 cm deep, with a leather interior. It comes in grained tan and sienna, croco-embossed black, lizard-embossed brown, ostrich-embossed grey and palmellato patent black, cherry and off-white.

The leathers

Grained cow leather is the hardest wearing. The embossed leathers, croco, lizard and ostrich, are cow leather pressed with the pattern. Palmellato patent is a glossy, lightly textured patent cow leather: wipe it with a damp cloth and keep it away from dark leathers in storage, since the gloss can pick up colour.

The passport holder, lipstick case and keyring

The passport holder is croco-embossed leather with a palmellato leather interior and two internal sleeves, 10 by 14.5 cm, with a gold-tone logo. The lipstick case is a small leather box with a leather interior, in black and lizard-embossed brown. The lizard-embossed keyring has a silver-tone clasp and a hot-stamped logo.

How to choose

Match the leather and hardware to the bag that carries it: a grained tan cardholder with a tan T-Lock bag, a croco cardholder with a croco bag. The T-Lock bags page has the bags they are made to go with.
