I carry a coloful leather one from Dutch designer Hester van Eeghen. It's really lovely; the website doesn't do it justice. posted by Admiral Haddock at 1:45 PM on October 11, 2012
Are you looking for something that sits on a desk or something he'd carry on his person?
I have a nifty metal cigarette case from this site that I use as my wallet, and I get comments all the time on how nifty it is. They have business card holders, too. posted by phunniemee at 1:45 PM on October 11, 2012
Seconding Phunniemee's suggestion of www.kyledesigns.com - I have purchased several card holders from there and have been very happy with them. posted by Ink-stained wretch at 2:06 PM on October 11, 2012 [1 favorite]
I have a metal case similar to the one phunniemee linked to, and I get compliments on it a lot too.
Muji's aluminum card case is simple and my favorite. It's out of stock online right now, but if you happen to be in NYC, you can get it at the store...This one is similar. posted by three_red_balloons at 5:14 PM on October 11, 2012
Also have a cigarette case and love it. It's a lot more durable and better built than the metal card case I had before it. posted by Miko at 5:55 PM on October 11, 2012
