Vacchetta leather with a deepening sheen
Thin card case (billfold)
A bi-fold wallet without a coin pocket is called a " billfold."
Four pockets hold eight cards, yet the billfold is slim
That is the " Hitoe® Quartet ."

About Liscio Leather
Smooth and Refined Vacchetta Leather
Vacchetta leather has been handed down in the Tuscany region of Italy since the early 9th century.
Its surface is smooth and fine-grained, with an elegant and rich character that deepens in color and gloss as it ages with use.
Remains thin even when stored
The four card pockets do not overlap, resulting in a slim design thanks to the " Hitoe® (single) structure ."
- Thickness 11mm when storing 8 cards and 10 bills
Size: 120 x 94mm
Each card pocket can hold 1 to 2 cards, up to a maximum of 8 cards.
Minimalist design
The card to be stored is used as the core material.
Hitoe® Quartet utilizes the card pockets on all sides to use the cards as a card insert , which allows for a slim design.
When you put it in your pocket, the gaps between the cards bend slightly, allowing them to flex and move flexibly along with your body. This makes it harder for the cards to bend, preventing damage.
The pursuit of thinness
The edges are not "rolled" but rather have a "seam allowance". This is in pursuit of "thinness". If the edges are rolled, the size will be smaller, but the overlapping of the leather will increase, making the item thicker. This detail is faithful to the ideal we aim for.
Also, when you roll the card up, it is easy for the card to get caught on the edge of the leather, but with the seam allowance, it runs smoothly without getting caught.

Long-lasting and beautiful
Most wallet problems are caused by metal fittings and stitching. We do not use any metal fittings. Corners and edges that are prone to damage are made more durable by overlapping the outer and inner leather. Furthermore, there are no stitches on the folded parts that are subject to friction.
The seam allowance is extremely small, making the design less likely to lose its shape.
Beautiful details
The precise and delicate stitching, the dyed and polished edge (cut surface of leather), the smooth surface (underside of leather), the thin lines drawn on the edges with a hot iron (nenhiki) - beauty is pursued down to the smallest detail.
The banknotes remain intact
Banknotes can be stored directly in the large pocket.

Usage notes
The card pockets do not have gussets. Instead, they are made of thin, kneaded leather that is easy to stretch.
The dimensions are not very generous so it may feel a bit cramped at first, but you will soon get used to it, and once you do, it will fit just right and be comfortable to use.
The lid is designed to close tightly once the leather becomes familiar with it, so even if it is closed at first, the lid may open slightly.
Origins
Liscio, Italian for "smooth." Its surface is smooth and fine-grained, with natural color variations and natural marks, giving it a sophisticated and rich leather-like appearance.
Tanning and Manufacturing
"Vacchetta leather" is a traditional Italian leather tanning technique from Tuscany, dating back to the early 9th century. Cowhide is tanned with vegetable tannins extracted from chestnut and mimosa, then slowly infused with oil and finished with dye. The internal oils gradually emerge with use, deepening its color and luster.
LWG (Leather Working Group) environmental certification: Silver rank.
Maintenance
Due to the sufficient oil content, oil treatment is not necessary unless you are concerned about scratches or dryness. For daily care, we recommend wiping with a soft, dry cloth or brushing. For more details, please refer here.
