Handmade Leather Wallet: H-Block Derry Memorial Design

More than a wallet — this is a piece of lived Irish history.

Completely handmade in Ireland by a former POW, of these very same H-Blocks, each wallet is individually cut, stitched and hand-finished using traditional leatherworking techniques learned and refined over years of resilience and skill. This is not factory work — it is craftsmanship shaped by experience, patience and pride.

Made from rich full-grain leather, every piece carries its own natural grain and character. With time, it deepens in tone and becomes even more personal to its owner.

The front features a detailed embossing of the H Block memorial in Derry — a powerful symbol associated with the prison blocks of Long Kesh during the conflict in Northern Ireland. The H Blocks became internationally known during the prison protests of the late 1970s and early 1980s, particularly the hunger strikes of 1981. For many, they represent sacrifice, endurance and a defining chapter in modern Irish history.

This depiction is respectfully pressed into the leather as a mark of remembrance and identity.

The reverse carries a complementary heritage design, balancing strength with craftsmanship.

Each wallet is made to order.
