Final run of the Poquito in black cherry. The last new wallet body we shipped before the workshop closed.

Every poquito was finished in a tung oil and beeswax blend, hand sanded through four grits and rubbed with a soft cloth until the timber would not take any more oil. The interior elastic was sourced from a Sydney saddler and replaced once per run.

Build notes

  • Hand cut on the bench from a single board, grain matched left to right.
  • Sanded through 120, 220, 320 and 400 grit before finishing.
  • Three coats of food safe tung oil over twenty four hours, beeswax buff on the fourth day.
  • Interior lining stitched in waxed cotton by a Sydney saddler.

Notes from the workshop

This piece is archived. We are not running new batches. If you own one, the oil and beeswax finish note covers re-oiling.
