  • The art

    • "Figure In The Studio" by Lucy Farley 2016

      The harmonic, geometric figure enters from white - a blank canvas - into the explosive colour, chaos and energy of the studio. Farley's painting is a fresh blast, capturing the wonderful, reeling excitement of creativity and chaos.

  • The words

    • From "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Friedrich Nietzsche 1883 - 1885

      The words on Alchemy come from Nietzsche’s often misquoted, misrepresented, but fantastically original and hugely influential, philosophical novel.

      The sublime turn of phrase 'dancing star' is representative of the book's qualities; intense, breathtakingly insightful, enigmatic, absurd, ambiguous and filled with humour, parody and passion. 

      These words also encapsulate Nietzsche’s belief that along with order and harmony, chaos and intoxication are essential for producing truly great art.

  • Handcrafted in England

    • We use the best organic non-toxic leather

      ART WRD wallet leather is created from an ancient Italian technique using 100% natural, non-toxic, tannins from plants. These give the leather an unmistakable warm and brilliant shade that becomes more intense with daily use and the passing of time.

      Our pioneering printing lasts a lifetime

      In Nottingham, England we work with leather printing pioneers. Utilizing their specialist procedures, artworks are re-created like a tattoo, with ink absorbing deeper into the leather, resulting in unparalleled colour vibrancy, image quality and colour durability.

      Our wallets are crafted by highly-skilled, passionate people

      Just across the Nottinghamshire Wolds in Melton Mowbray our card holder wallets are handcrafted in small batches using traditional methods. This, along with the natural variation in these artisan products, means each one is unique. Expertly made to the very highest quality, they are full-leather (no nylon inners), double-stitched at pressure points and then lined with leather for durability, accessibility, and refinement.

      In short, ART WRD card holder wallets are made to inspire you for a lifetime. So much so, we guarantee the construction of your Minimalist Card Holder for as long as you own it.

High quality wallet

Beautifully made, durable, attractive. Bought a second one when I lost the first one. Never want to be without this in my pocket or bag. Holds 3 cards easily, would probably stretch to a fourth.
