Great briefcase, CD. You are a lucky fellow to have Bea so close. I've spoken to her on the phone and have found her to be very affable and of course her work is unsurpassed. I am compiling a list of items to commission but I want to visit the shop to place the order. A perfect excuse for a visit to SF.

What a treat for the eyes Cruz. The linings are set in with immaculate delicacy. So good of you to share your positive experience.
Living in NY makes me wonder though if the case is stiff enough for its intended use of shielding me from pedestrians walking right into me all day long.

Like custom Hermes (or better). Beautiful white topstitching on the wallet. My wife just ordered a new tan bridle Swaine briefcase for me as a birthday gift, as she thought my old black one was too shabby. I would have kept it. Rather have yours.

excellent stuff Ken. Though I prefer the "heavier" style of the Swaine or Daines & Hathaway cases.
I had done a few sketches of some stuff that I'd like to have commissioned. I was gonign to send to Pickett but maybe to April would be good too.

Amazing find, Cruz. Beautiful work. Enjoy the case.
