Stella Gikonyo (7. March 2023)

Greetings Knut,
My name is Stellar, & I am happy to provide an offer for your Black Leather Wallet.
Leather
We are not able to use Buffalo leather since its not readily available in our market.
We propose to Authentic Cow leather in black ( Please see attached sample for your review).

Size
We have attached a portrait format for your review.
Please let us know if the design is acceptable.

We look forward to your response.

Kind regards,
Gikonyo Stellar

Knut (8. March 2023)

Hello Stella, nice to hear from you.
Do you think you can make a purse like this for me?
Which leather would you take?
It should already be robust.
Greetings
Knut (Automatic translation)

Stella Gikonyo (9. March 2023)

Hello Knut,
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, we can do a well made black wallet in portrait as per the attached photos.

In terms of Black leather, we have Full Grain & Oil pull-up ( Please see attachments).

Both are very high quality leathers and i am happy to use either.
The main difference is the texture where the oil- pull-up has a soft feel while the Full grain is more robust( Hard texture).

Let me know your choice.

Kind regards,
Gikonyo Stellar

Knut (10. March 2023)

Hi Stella,
The black leather is great, that's how I had imagined it.
Would you make the "inside" of the purse out of fabric or would leather be possible here? (Automatic translation)

Stella Gikonyo (11. March 2023)

Hi Knut,
We appreciate your feedback.

Leather is very possible on the inside of the purse and we recommend the use leather instead of fabric for durability.

Kind regards,
Gikonyo Stellar
