Smathers & Branson
In 2004, while roommates at Bowdoin College, Peter and Austin decided to start a company that offered needlepoint belts. They had each been gifted a needlepoint belt from our then girlfriends and became intrigued with these unique accessories. After looking to buy finished belts, they realized that there wasn’t a company that featured these timeless items. From the start, the goal was to make the belts more available, attractive and affordable. They had always shared an entrepreneurial spirit and after discovering a concept that we were passionate about, we started working on the idea that has become the iconic Smathers Branson belt.
The positive response to the needlepoint belts in 2005 allowed Smathers & Branson belts to expand to a full line of needlepoint accessories. Through our licensing agreements, we now offer needlepoint products for many of the nation’s best universities and colleges, Major League Baseball® teams, National Hockey League® teams and fraternities and sororities. In addition, we can create custom products with unique patterns for schools, clubs, and organizations as well as one of a kind Life Belts® and monogrammed products.

Quick ViewA simple, clean design and classic style are the hallmarks of this men’s bifold. This wallet is hand-stitched, with rounded corners and a raw edge finish. The Dolce Small Bifold is an instant classic, refined with a modern style that is sure to impress.
The profile of this wallet is small, but the feature list is huge, including six card pockets to handle your ID and all of your debit, credit, loyalty, and business cards. There are also two additional stash pockets for your receipts and other necessary items, and a center cash well for all of your paper bills. The allure of this wallet, however, is the leather. We constructed this bifold using our signature Dolce leather. Dolce in Italian means sweet, soft, luscious, and smooth. The rich stain highlights the natural grains and textures of the veg-tanned leather. We then polish the leather to a low luster resulting in a semi-gloss finish.

Quick ViewHistory enthusiasts will love this globe’s authentic antique world map from 1790 in crisp white and green colors.
HOW IT WORKS
MOVA Globes combine effortless performance with eye-catching graphics. Each handcrafted globe mingles vibrant artwork with our patented technology for flawless rotation without batteries or messy cords. Hidden solar cells use ambient light for power, while the earth’s magnetic field provides the necessary torque. These elements work in unison to power a whisper quiet mechanism, allowing the globe to rotate within a clear outer shell. Each piece is assembled with such precision, it appears the inner and outer layers are one – rotating without any outside power source. -
