A leather pen case that gives every pen a proper home and keeps a few cards and some cash beside them. It replaces three loose items, a pen pouch, a card sleeve and a spare cash fold, with one case that zips shut and stays closed. Its worn-in look suits a desk that already has some character.
The case is genuine cowhide leather with a vintage-style finish that develops a deeper, richer patina the more it is handled. Inside, several pen slots hold your writing tools upright and separated, keeping nibs and tips protected from scratches and pressure. Past the pen slots, a zippered interior pocket holds cash, receipts or small documents, and card slots keep a few essentials within reach. A zipper closes the case all the way around.
The flat, compact shape slides into a briefcase pocket, the front sleeve of a laptop bag or a desk drawer without adding bulk. Use it as a travel kit for the office, with your pens, a couple of cards and a little cash in one place, or keep it on the desk at home. It is a practical choice for anyone who writes by hand every day and dislikes digging through a bag for a pen.
Dimensions and details for this piece are listed under Technical details. If you have a question before ordering, write to us.
Leather: wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Once or twice a year, work in a little neutral leather cream, testing it first on a hidden spot. If it gets wet, blot it and let it dry naturally, away from radiators and direct sun. Full-grain leather darkens and softens with use; that patina is part of its character.

Our pieces, out in the real world.
In 1924, our grandfather, Albert Whitley, opened a small outfitter’s shop in Yorkshire. Our father, Henry, carried it forward. Today, we continue the family business with the same belief: good materials, useful things and pieces made to be worn for years.
The counter may now be a website, but the standard remains much the same. Old craft. Modern wear.
Each piece names its exact material under Technical details, whether full-grain, top-grain or split leather, vegan leather or metal. If a piece is not listed as leather, it is not leather.
Pieces with a tracker slot say so under Technical details. The tracker itself is not included.
Dimensions, card capacity and laptop size are listed under Technical details for every piece. Belts are sized by full strap length: choose about 2 in (5 cm) above your trouser waist size. If you want us to confirm a fit before ordering, write to us.
Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, condition it once or twice a year with a neutral leather cream, and let it dry naturally if it gets wet. Full-grain leather darkens and softens with use; that patina is part of its character.
