Antiqued Hand-Carved Skull Long Wallet with Red Stingray Cutwork
SKU: 2183
A skull is hand-carved across this long biker wallet, and one half of its face is cut clean through. Behind those windows sits red stingray, filling one eye socket, the cheek and the gaps between the teeth. The cowhide around it is 2.5 mm vegetable-tanned leather, carved with flowers and scrolls and antiqued dark. Closed, the wallet measures 8″ × 4″, with .925 sterling silver hardware.
Who This Is Actually For
If you want carving and exotic hide on one panel — tooled cowhide covers most of the surface. Red stingray appears only where the skull is cut open. Every window is outlined in thick cream stitching. Best for riders who like hand-tooling but want one strong color in it.
If you prefer a darker finish — the entire exterior is antiqued. The recesses of the carving stay almost black, while the raised petals and scrolls catch light. Best for anyone who finds natural tan carving too bright for daily wear.
If your cash should stay unfolded — at 8 inches long, the wallet exceeds a 6.14-inch US bill, so notes ride flat. A full-length zipper pocket inside keeps coins away from them. Best for riders who carry real money on long trips.
What It's Like to Carry (The Honest Take)
The skull wraps around the fold, so the wallet has two different faces. On the front half, windows show red stingray in one eye socket, across the cheek and between the teeth. Beside that eye sits a small patch of pale pearl beads.
The other half continues onto the back as pure carving. Its eye socket is stamped with a dotted texture, and a large daisy-style flower with a dotted center fills the lower corner. Leaves and scrolls run between them.
A carved strap reaches across and fastens with a cast concho, decorated with curling flame shapes. Thick cream thread runs around every edge and every stingray window. That contrast makes the cutwork outline readable from a distance.
Compared with the natural tan version of this design, this finish is moodier. The tan wallet keeps a pale skull against dark flowers. Here the leather is dark throughout, and the red stingray carries nearly all of the color.
Open it and the interior is smooth black leather. Card slots sit in stitched columns, with a full-length zipper running between the panels and a chain grommet at one end.

Questions You're Probably Asking
Are both eye sockets stingray?
No, only one. Windows on the front half of the skull show red stingray in one eye socket, across the cheek and between the teeth. A small patch of pale pearl beads sits beside that eye. The second eye socket is on the back half, stamped into the cowhide with a dotted texture.
What is carved on the back?
The rest of the skull and a large flower. Because the skull wraps around the fold, its second eye socket continues onto the back in carved cowhide. A daisy-style flower with a dotted center fills the lower corner. Leaves and scrolls cover the remaining area up to the cream-stitched edge.
How does it compare with the natural tan version of this skull wallet?
It is the same design in a different finish. Both use red stingray behind the same skull windows, a carved strap with a concho and a 4″ × 8″ body. That wallet keeps the skull pale against dark florals. This one is antiqued dark throughout, so the stingray provides the color.
