A first black wallet, beside a sot bag

A black wallet sits in front of a green paper bag bearing a bird design and the name sot. The added words describe it as a first black wallet.

Scenes recorded in the photographs.

Black texture and a green paper bag

The long wallet shows fine surface texture and stitching along its edge. Behind it, the bag carries a golden bird and the letters “sot,” setting black against green in the composition.

A small view of the shop

An inset at the upper left shows lights, shelving and a small tree inside the shop. The image brings the wallet’s close view together with a glimpse of the interior.
