Inden - Indenya Round Zipper Tri-Fold Wallet, Check Pattern / Coin Purse/Mini Wallet

JAM's iconic, original-patterned leather products are expressed through traditional techniques.

The pattern motif is JAM's original "GIN""JAM"" CHECK" pattern, inspired by a shogi board, a reference to the Shogi Hall located in Sendagaya, where the flagship store relocated and reopened.

Based on wallets from Inden-ya, the head office of the traditional leather craft "Inden," this wallet features a black diamond-adorned attachment part on the back, embodying the identity of JAM wallets. It adds a touch of precious stone value to traditional craftsmanship, unique to JAM.

The compartment has a round zipper closure, opening wide for excellent visibility. A divider allows coins, cards, and folded bills to be stored together. Four interior card pockets protect against scratches.
This mini wallet securely holds the bare essentials: cards, bills, and coins. It's an extremely minimalist and small-sized mini wallet.

Not only is it easy to use, but the JAM eyelets add a modern touch.

The combination of strong, soft, and lightweight deerskin leather with lacquer that brightens over time creates a unique texture that becomes more comfortable in your hand the more you use it.

The black diamond or birthstone-set attachment rotates 360 degrees to prevent the wallet chain from tangling.

"Inden" is a leather craft that has been passed down in Koshu (Yamanashi) for over 400 years. "Inden-ya" is a long-established "Inden" store founded in 1582.

During the Edo period, our ancestor, Yuichi Uehara, invented a unique technique for applying lacquer patterns to deerskin. This is said to be the beginning of Koshu Inden.

In 1987, Koshu Inden was designated a traditional craft by the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry. The traditional Inden craftsmanship conveys the culture of rare leather crafts as a practical beauty that brightens everyday life.

Characteristics of Inden
〇 Lacquer may lose its luster if exposed to sunlight (UV rays) for extended periods.
〇 Lacquer may crack during the processing process. It may also chip or peel. The same applies if the leather is bent or scratched.
〇 Deer leather may have scratches caused by horn rubbing, but these are valued as evidence of its natural origin.
Deer leather may be damaged by rubbing or the surface of the leather during use.
〇 Because the skin properties of each piece of deer leather are different, slight variations in the color tone of the dip-dye may occur. Partial color unevenness may also occur. Deer leather may discolor or fade due to sunlight, lighting, and aging.

Cautions and Requests
〇 Since the lacquer is completely dried in a shaded room, there is little risk of rashes due to the lacquer. However, in rare cases, rashes may occur depending on your constitution. If this occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
〇 In order to preserve the natural characteristics of the deerskin, no special color-fast treatment has been applied. Therefore, sweat, water, friction, etc. may cause changes in texture, or the leather dye may transfer to clothing.

Care Instructions
〇 If the product gets wet, do not rub it. Instead, gently pat it with a dry cloth to remove moisture and dry it in the shade. Do not use gasoline, cleaners, or wax to remove dirt or polish.
