"Berluti" 2012-2018 Scrit patina Venezia leather card case

From Berluti, which has refined the philosophy of handcrafting in the world of men's shoes and has elevated the material itself into art, we introduce a masterpiece where iconic designs and techniques are condensed into the palm of your hand.

A piece that, with its patina sinking into deep tones, is a small accessory that also refines the way you hold it.

The core of its expression is the calligraphy of the slit engraved all over, with brushstrokes reminiscent of 18th-century old documents flowing across the leather, creating a sense of depth rather than just a pattern. Additionally, the inclusion of engraved seals creates a rhythm in the flow of text, quietly asserting its craftsmanship.

The material used is Berluti's renowned Venice leather, with a fine grain that smoothly conforms to the hand, and the layers of dyeing through patina create variations depending on the light—sometimes appearing close to black shadows, or the base tannin rising softly—making the expression dynamic and not fixed. This ability to enjoy change is a value-added feature that sets it apart from mass-produced leather accessories.

The structure is a compact bi-fold design, with a subtle embossed Berluti Paris logo inside, maintaining a balance where the brand's pride is only visible when opened, without overstatement on the outside. The edges are finished with paint, preventing them from becoming sloppy, and as it is used, the rounded corners add to its elegance.

The likely range is around 2012-2018, belonging to the context where slit design was firmly established in leather goods after the 2000s, and the interior logo is not the new sans-serif logo seen after the 2018 refresh, but the traditional Berluti Paris inscription with serifs, which supports the idea that it is not the current design post-2019. Also, the shallow engraving of the slit print, which leaves shadows rather than deep carving, supports its mid-term specification.

This size naturally appeals to those who want to carry cards or business cards beautifully with minimalism, and while it doesn't draw too much attention inside the bag, the moment you take it out, the atmosphere changes—truly characteristic of Berluti. It leaves a definite impression in short actions like daily payments and exchanging business cards.

In terms of styling, slipping it into the pockets of neat tailored or minimal coats enhances the completeness of your outfit with a hint of slit, and even on simple shirts and light days with slacks, accessories add a touch of class. Additionally, matching the texture with leather bags and gloves creates a quiet luxury that transcends gender.

Take this opportunity.
