Oscar Udeshi (designer and chairman of the British Menswear Guild) has created a line of accessories for men made out of dyed stingray skin. The accessories line includes wallets, credit card holders and coin purses.
The items are available to buy either online or via his shops (one is located in Milan and the other one in London Mayfair). These stingray accessories are highly limited edition as only 20 stingray skins made the quality grade last year. They come in bright yellow, purple and Udeshi's signature red color combinations.
