Color: Black

This is a special version of my horse culatta lighter case Siegfried.

Reverse veg tan horse culatta with a heavy shell cordovan layer.
Raw edge of the hide left intact with holes from a drying rack.
Currently this is my daily lighter, so it comes pre-polished.

You can also make your own custom order of a similar or a different lighter case if you contact me on insta: https://www.instagram.com/mit.kater

You can replace the lighter yourself, and it fits snugly and safe. However, if you fidget with it too much the leather will stretch. It's not a problem, you can wrap your lighter in masking tape for a tighter fit. All leather items are made for life and it should serve you forever.

NB: the item is shipped internationally without a lighter. It fits classic BIC Maxi lighters.

All leather items are hand-stitched and handmade without any machines from the most amazing materials. Traditional veg tan leather, deadstock Italian leather, glass glazed horse shoulder, horse culatta and shell cordovan. You can read more about the horse leather in the blog.

Each item is one of a kind due to the natural full grain texture of leather and the creative process. Everything particular about this item is as it should be.
