Under the Wave off Kanagawa shows movement, tension, inevitability. Hokusai’s wave rises, curling into itself, a moment before it breaks. Mount Fuji waits unmoved in the background. A rhythm that has lasted for centuries. Now, the wave is stilled, made to fit the palm of your hand.

The clouds in Jacob van Ruisdael’s View of Haarlem with Bleaching Grounds fill the air with movement. His signature expansive skies were a study of depth and precision that permeated 17th-century Dutch art. Now, this vastness is condensed to fit in your pocket.

Almond trees flower early in the spring making them a symbol of new life. This painting was a gift for Vincent van Gogh’s newborn nephew. The boy was born on 31 January 1890 and he was named Vincent after his uncle. Van Gogh was delighted to hear the news: ‘It does me, too, more good and gives me more pleasure than I could express in words’.

He painted the blue sky very precisely around the branches. The detailed digital print on the finest leather show how many different shades of blue he used, making this wallet a true art piece.

The Van Gogh Museum combined the flowers from seven iconic Van Gogh works to create this tribute to the artist. The artist’s love for nature is visible in all the flowers he painted. Van Gogh wrote in one of his letters: ‘I believe that at present we must paint nature’s rich and magnificent aspects; we need good cheer and happiness, hope and love.’ (Vincent van Gogh to his sister Willemien, Arles, September 1888). For this wallet we focussed on the sunflowers which had a special meaning for Van Gogh: they communicate ‘gratitude’, according to him.

Vermeer’s Girl with the Pearl Earring, sometimes called the Mona Lisa of the North, has fascinated many millions all around the world. Inspiring books, films and art from all fields. We set the pearl right at the center of the composition, showing Vermeer’s unparalleled skill in playing with light. While the girl’s mysterious glance and smile are on the back of the wallet, adding to her mysterious allure.

The Goldfinch has always been a favourite of art-lovers, but it recently became an international phenomenon in after the success of Donna Tart’s best-selling novel and subsequent film of the same title. Fans of the book from all over the world flocked to the Netherlands to see the painting. Now they can carry it with them in their pocket.

Master of light and shadow, Rembrandt shows his full talent in this iconic work. It is for this reason that the Night Watch is the centerpiece of the Rijksmuseum and a national treasure of the Netherlands. The original is noteworthy also for its impressive size, but we are sure it is just as inspiring in pocket-size.
