During my italian trip, I was really excited (as a huge fan of the movie La Grande Belleza)

to make a stop of three days in Roma.

It was absolutely beautiful in term of architecture, landscape, culture but a 

cruel deception in term of livability: Roma is eaten by a massive tourism

and nothing is worse than touristic shops, touristic restaurants etc...

But, there are some pearls to find sometimes in outlying districts and sometimes in the heart of the city like the leather artisan Federico Polidori.

After a few minutes in his shop/workshop, I decided that I wanted a custom wallet.

Here are some pictures.

Here are the pictures of the fabrication process of my wallet.

Federico is a really kind man and you can trust him from A to Z 

at every stages of the process. From the first drawings to the final product.

I received it after one month.

The leather is incredible and it will tan by means of using it and with the light.

Thanks Neoretro for the tip.
