This is the companion case to the Poor Knight. My customer ordered this one for himself and the Poor Knight as a gift to his brother.
We worked on this design for quite a while. My customer was inspired by the leather work done by Skyhorse leather and wanted something with a similar feel to it. So this is what came out of that collaboration.
The Portuguese Royal coat of arms is inlaid and hand painted. The silhouette of Portugal on the front is a custom embossed piece.
As always we took longer than we thought to finish this case. However I suppose when you are getting something meant to be used for a lifetime and passed on to your children then it's worth the wait.
You can see a video presentation of these two cases here;

Notice the custom Puzzle Latch. You have to watch the video to see this one in action. We spent about a day working on this latch to make it perfect.
