The story
A compact snap wallet carrying a full mandala on its face — tooled into full-grain leather stamp by stamp, the way mehndi is drawn line by line: from the center, outward, with patience. The recesses hold the dye darker, so the pattern keeps its shadow for life.
Snap-tab closure, card slots, a bill fold, an ID window, and a coin pocket in a wallet the size of your palm. Dyed to order in twelve shades, from tea rose to dark teal — and because tooling and dyeing are done by hand, no two Mehndis are alike.
Materials
Full-grain leather, hand-tooled with steel stamps until the mandala stands in relief, then hand-dyed and burnished. Solid snap closure, soft leather interior with card slots and a coin pocket.
Twelve colors
Every piece is dyed to order in one of twelve shades — from tea rose to dark teal. Because dyeing is done by hand over tooled leather, the mandala always reads a touch darker in the recesses: that is the depth you are paying for.
Care
Condition once or twice a year. The tooling protects itself — the raised pattern burnishes with handling and grows more defined, not less.
Tooled by hand
Steel stamps and a mallet — no press, no shortcuts.
Full-grain leather
The top cut of the hide. It wears in, not out.

The circle that centers
Every mandala begins at the center.
In the Indian tradition, a mandala is drawn from a single point outward — a circle that stands for the whole of things, used for centuries to steady the mind. Ours are tooled the same way: the artisan sets the center stamp first, then works ring by ring to the edge, a small meditation in leather.

Pick the color of your quiet.
Like mehndi drawn for a festival, the pattern is constant and the hand that wears it makes it personal. Twelve dyes — burgundy for the bold, dark teal for the deep, tea rose for the soft-spoken — each one rubbed into the tooling so the mandala keeps its shadow.

“Ordered burgundy, dyed to order. It arrived smelling of leather workshop and the mandala catches light like a coin.”
“A year of daily use and the pattern has burnished darker at the high points. It looks better than the day it came.”
