[Domestic Material] Composite-Material Geometric Business Card Case, Taiwan Incense Cedar
In one handoff, you leave behind more than just a name
A business card case is the quietest self-introduction in any business setting. WKidea uses a Taiwan incense cedar veneer as the surface and 304 stainless steel as the frame, using a geometric, sculptural design language to turn every card handoff into a silent style statement.
Incense cedar × stainless steel, a modern take on composite material
Taiwan incense cedar (Calocedrus formosana) is a precious native conifer species in Taiwan, with fine grain, a refined scent, and a naturally warm texture. This piece features a 2.5mm incense cedar veneer over a 304 stainless steel body, with a double-sided matte black nano-plating finish, letting wood's natural language and metal's precision craft coexist in a single object.
Geometric, sculptural form — a craft challenge in just 2.5mm
Unlike traditional chamfered designs, WKidea carves a three-dimensional geometric form into a wood veneer only 2.5mm thick, requiring precise control over every edge cut. After alcohol treatment shifts the wood fibers, repeated hand-sanding and waxing produce an understated, natural matte sheen — warm to the touch, without losing its refinement.
Minimalist by design, letting the material speak
The card case's form stays restrained, with no unnecessary decorative language. The geometric shape itself is the design, and wood's natural variation makes each piece one of a kind. The matte black metal frame and incense cedar's warm tone form a calm contrast, suited to any business setting and a great choice for gifting.
Suited occasions
Whether it's a first impression at a business meeting, a brand extension at a design exhibition, or a thoughtful gift for an important partner, this card case precisely conveys your taste and attitude. It holds approximately 11–14 standard cards (90×54mm), light and easy to carry every day.
Everyday care tips
Please avoid prolonged contact with moisture or strong sunlight on the wood surface; a gentle wipe with a dry cloth keeps its sheen. The metal part can be wiped with a slightly damp soft cloth — avoid abrasive cleaners. Over time, the wood grain's tone will gradually become even warmer and more lustrous.
