Heirloom "Street Wand Holster" in Reversed Shell Cordovan
Samurai wore katanas in sheathes. Gunslingers hung revolvers on their hips. Now, magicians can display their best wands in the most luxurious wand holster available. Whether it's under your jacket at a high end strolling gig or hanging next to your gibeciere while you're out on the pitch, the Street Wand Holster in Shell Cordovan will radiate quality.
In the spirit of creating the highest quality wands by using the toughest, rare ironwoods, we have found the best luxury leather with which to produce heirloom quality holsters.
Shell Cordovan is a fibrous tissue layer obtained exclusively from a limited section of equine hindquarters-- horse butt. It takes six months and dozens of steps to process each small piece into the final product. Only a handful of tanneries around the world offer it. The best is Horween, out of Chicago. Their shell cordovan is the gold standard in the industry. Tough, smooth, and rare, Horween Shell Cordovan is used to make $500 wallets and $1,500 shoes. A fashion-minded friend of mine commented that, "Women notice leather like that."
Like Lignum Vitae or Blackheart, Cordovan leather is magically robust. The unique Shell fiber layer is a cross between muscle and tendon. The tissue is denser and tougher than other leathers made of hide. Its sheen, smoothness, and durability is renowned. Cordovan is considered the "Rolex of leathers" for its enduring quality— they can be used and passed on from generation to generation.
Each Heirloom Street Wand Holster is made from a single large piece of Horween Shell Cordovan. Edges are burnished three times for waxy smoothness. Stress bearing joints have reinforced stitching to endure your most energetic performances. Hand-made in the USA.
