December 2020

Towards the end of 2020, we secured our first order with the largest financial newspaper Nikkei. Based in Asia, Nikkei has a daily circulation exceeding 1.73 million copies.

This project meant the world to us, not only because it was before we’d even opened our doors to the public, but the fact that such an incredible company had noticed the quality of our products and believed in what we were about to launch.

The Japanese have a profound appreciation for leather goods and their craftsmanship, a stitch out of turn does not go unnoticed, and at CLG we love this attention to detail.

We created a card holder that could be used amongst the Nikkei team, designed with functionality in mind, its slimline appearance makes for an unexpected amount of space for cards and notes, making it an everyday essential.

Made from a fine-grain calf leather in black, with a bold signature Nikkei blue on the inside, and a discreet silver foil logo emboss on the inside. It’s subtle, elegant and practical.

Thank you, Nikkei Inc, for being CLG’s first customer.
