db clay studio db clay who is title

Based in NE Portland, we create unique wallets called pocket art. What began in 1998, with little intention and lots of playfulness, has now become a full scale designer wallet and accessories label with highly functional and beautiful products being distributed worldwide. Building this wallet business has been a wild ten year ride and our products have indeed evolved over the years as we've grown. At the core of it all, each db clay piece we produce tells a story, intends to spark human interaction and encourage meaningful conversation.

Beyond that shiny fashion world veneer db clay is, in my estimation, more of a creative think tank appropriating the fringes of art, content, technology, design, and dreams- then incorporating such into an architecture accessible to all... - Graeme Mitchell

In 2008, our newest collection of designer wallets is titled Version 3.1 (three point one). We have developed a proprietary printing process for transferring artwork onto a custom eco friendly textile we call Tope, which is then stitched into a strong and beautiful billfold. Version 3.1, as well as other one of a kind gifts, can be purchased here.

vp operations

I was the second 'wallet guy' and I've literally seen this company grow through every stage imaginable. Hard times and baptisms by fire bring us to present; I'm the VP of Operations and Marketing and going gray at an early age. Wallets aside, I have a degree in Journalism from the University of Oregon and I was recently named Portland's Songwriter of the Year- I'm still unsure if I can craft a better song or Duct Tape wallet.

Courtney Smith

creative production assistant

I creatively assist production. This can be in the form of image prep, technical packaging, graphic design and other random jobs that involve a computer. The Adobe suite is my screwdriver, hammer and nails. The most essential quality I bring to db clay is feminine charm.

internet // marketing // morale

As long as I have an Internet connection and electricity I can solve almost any problem. Well, besides cancer and world hunger and stuff like that. I have big goals + I am addicted to conspiracy and the paranormal.

If you ask nicely, he'll dance.
