Shell Cordovan is one of WILDSWANS’ most coveted leathers. When we launch a rare color, it sells out instantly and garners significant attention. This time, we’re excited to introduce STELLA, a mini wallet that debuted this summer, crafted from the esteemed Shell Cordovan leather.
Horween is a prominent tannery established in 1905 in Chicago, USA. It is renowned for its world-famous Shell Cordovan leather, which is used for leather shoes and various small leather goods, and appreciated for its abundant oil and suppleness. It refers to leather made from a specific fiber layer found in a horse’s rump. The cordovan Horween produced is high-quality leather richly oiled using a distinctive technique. The quality and beauty of this leather are recognized as “Shell Cordovan,” and it remains a popular leather choice globally.
About color variations
The calming navy blue color is paired with a saddle leather and black to establish a dark tone. Navy-colored stitching outlines the entire look with a cool touch.
A playful green hue. The saddle pull-ups and black interiors are complemented by stylish charcoal gray stitching, providing a solid appearance without being overly dark.
Intense Blue x French Navy (limited color)
A color with a bluish tint beneath the glossy surface. The interior features a monochromatic design, matching the same color saddle pull-ups in French Navy and navy stitching.
Dark cognac x chocolate (limited color)
As the name suggests, this color is reminiscent of deep brandy. The interior is in the same color family as the saddle leather in chocolate, but the lighter light brown stitching adds a touch of color.
Mahogany x Camel (limited color)
This color remarkably illustrates the aging process. Camel color is used for the interior while light brown is chosen for the stitching, resulting in a product with a casual feel and a lighter brown tone.
#2 x Chocolate (limited color)
A vibrant color with a deep reddish tint. The interior merges saddle pull-ups/chocolate with light brown stitching to produce a reddish-brown product that exudes warmth.
Black x Black (standard color)
This is the standard, versatile black. Like the classic Shell Cordovan series, the interior complements saddle leather with black and dark brown stitching.
#8 x Chocolate (standard color)
A dark brown color with a subtle reddish tint. Similar to the standard Shell Cordovan series, this one features a saddle leather chocolate interior and dark brown stitching.
