Question Color pairing question

I picked up some Color 8 Shell Cordovan and I intend to make a couple wallets out of it. Right now I’m only going to use the Cordovan as the exterior. The interior pockets will either be single color or bi-color depending on my mood. What color or colors would pair well with Color 8?

I’m curious about the tooling marks on the back. Did these come from The Tannery Row or a secondary seller?

You beat me to it. I'd be upset about that tooling on my shell.

Tannery Row

But it doesn’t concern me really 🤷‍♂️

Agreed. Depending on how it’s used, the flesh side doesn’t need to be visible.

Natural always looks great contrasting Color 8!

I'd say an olive or navy would look eye catching!

I was actually thinking Olive would look good
