Color is one of the first things a customer notices, so the workshop devotes a full day to preparing each batch of leather for a new hue. The team starts by pulling hides that meet the full‑grain standard and that have a natural surface suitable for the pull‑up finish used in the Classic Bifold Wallet.
Before any dye touches the leather, the hides are cleaned, stretched on a frame and inspected for blemishes. Small sections are cut away for test swatches, allowing the artisans to see how the hide reacts to moisture and to the specific pigments they plan to use.
The orange and burgundy palette is created by mixing two vegetable‑based dyes in precise proportions. A small batch is applied to a test swatch and left to dry for 24 hours. The result is compared to a reference card that the design team approved. If the shade is too bright or too muted, the mix is adjusted and retested until the target tone matches the visual guide.
Once the formula is locked, the full hides are immersed in the dye bath for a controlled period, usually between six and eight minutes, to ensure even penetration. After soaking, the leather is hung in a temperature‑controlled room to dry slowly, which helps the pull‑up characteristic develop without hardening the surface.
After drying, each piece is conditioned with a light oil to restore flexibility, then cut to the pattern for the Classic Bifold Wallet — Orange & Burgundy, priced at PKR 2,999. The finished wallets go through a final visual check for color consistency before being placed in recyclable boxes with a brief care card.
Customer feedback on the color durability and appearance is collected after purchase. The notes are fed back to the dyeing team, who may tweak the pigment ratios for the next production run, keeping the orange & burgundy wallet looking its best for years.
