Tooled Leather Bi-Fold Wallet

This item is a bi-fold wallet, likely constructed from genuine leather, exhibiting a rich, dark color that appears to be black or a very deep brown. The wallet features intricate tooling patterns across its exterior. A significant portion of the wallet's surface, particularly the main body, is embossed with a textured basketweave pattern, indicating a common leatherworking decorative technique often seen in Western or rustic-style goods. In the upper right corner, there is a distinct, decorative overlay or panel with a swirling, floral, or vine-like tooled motif. This patterned section is outlined with a decorative, lighter-colored stitching that contrasts with the dark leather, drawing attention to the artistic detail. The edges of the wallet are also finished with lighter-colored stitching, appearing to be an off-white or light tan thread, which provides both structural integrity and an aesthetic border. The overall construction appears robust, though specific details of the interior are not visible from the provided image. There are no immediately obvious significant condition issues such as tears or heavy scuffing, suggesting it is in good, possibly used, condition with a typical patina developing from handling. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed tooling and precise stitching, suggests a mid-to-high quality item. This style is often associated with American Western aesthetics or heritage brands and could date from the mid-20th century to contemporary production, with specific age difficult to pinpoint without maker's marks or further context. The design indicates a focus on durability and classic, rugged style.
