Betsy Ross 4-Card Minimalist Wallet
Description
Betsy Ross was an upholsterer in Philadelphia who produced uniforms, tents, and flags for Continental forces. She was also acquainted with George Washington, and he personally discussed with her the making of a national flag for the new nation. While she agreed with his design wholeheartedly, she did make one change in that, rather than the stars being 6-pointed, they be 5-pointed for as she stated, "A 5-pointed star could be made with one snip." She went on to make the flag, and on June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress, seeking to promote national pride and unity, adopted the National Flag. "Resolved: that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation."
This handmade minimalist wallet features a unique tie-dye background and a patriotic Betsy Ross flag comprising the front and back pockets. It can hold a total of four credit-sized cards, or a few cards and some cash. The open-sleeve design allows quick and easy access to your most commonly used cards.
This premium Buttero leather started in its natural tan state, and the flags were hand dyed with fine paint brushes. The tie-dye style of the background is unique; no two wallets are alike.
The wallet is hand stitched with blue waxed, woven polyester thread and measures approximately 3-1/2 inches wide, 4-1/2 inches tall and about 1/4 inch deep when full.
