Cut from real cork bark, so every wallet wears the grain of its own tree. Yours will differ slightly from the photographs — no two harvests, and no two Almas, are alike.

The story

Alma means soul in Portuguese, and this wallet is cut from the country's most soulful material: real cork skin, peeled by hand from living Alentejo oaks that grow their bark back and live for centuries. Light as paper, water-resistant by nature, and one hundred percent vegan.

Six printed designs — from butterflies to azulejo mosaics — over natural cork grain, with a gold-tone zip and a caramel interior holding card slots, an ID window, and a central zip pocket. Because every sheet of bark carries its own grain, no two Almas are alike.

Materials

Natural Portuguese cork skin, harvested from living oaks in the Alentejo and pressed onto soft backing. Gold-tone zip-around closure. Caramel vegan-leather interior with card slots, an ID window, and a central zip pocket.

Dimensions

Approximately 12.5 x 9 x 2.5 cm. A compact wallet that carries a full purse's worth.

Care

Cork is naturally water-resistant and wipes clean with a damp cloth. It softens and deepens in tone with use, like a good wine.

The tree that gives without falling

Cork is bark, and the oak forgives.

In the Alentejo, cork oaks are undressed by hand every nine years — the bark peeled away in sheets while the tree stands and grows it back, for two hundred years or more. No felling, no waste, no apology. It is the gentlest luxury material on earth.

“Everything's great. Except for the coin compartment: sometimes small change slips out because it's not completely closed. A little annoying, but easy to live with.”
