Card and cigarette case cowhide leather

This small but fine case made of supple, vegetable tanned cowhide offers space for business cards or for up to seven cigarettes. ID cards and driver's licenses in card format also fit inside, for example in the small slot pocket in the lid, where they are held tightly and securely. The nickel-plated steel frame provides the necessary stability so that nothing can be crushed on the way. For the (unpadded) lining, resistant Lefa (leather fiber) is used, a resource-friendly material made from leather scraps and natural latex.

The “Fine leather goods factory” Franz Hammann based in Offenbach (one of the German centres of leather goods manufacturing) is one of the oldest leather manufacturers in Germany. The family-owned company has been producing high-quality leather goods and travel accessories for five generations. The Hessian leather goods are as sophisticated as they are durable; some models require the use of old special machines. Hammann has decades-old experience in leather crafts, especially in producing leather bags and cases complete with frames and handles. Precise workmanship and high-quality materials play an even more significant role here than in leather crafts anyway. To ensure the quality of its leather products, Hammann produces at its headquarters (and has done so since 1864) while processing exclusively full-grain leather of European origin. Locks and fittings are made in Germany. Here too, the details make the difference: all locks and fittings are milled from solid brass and alloy steel and get polished by hand. You might recognize the mirror-bright surfaces featuring a shine that “drum-polished sheet metal parts” could never give off.
