Tuareg Circular Lidded Leather Box with Incised Design

Smooth gray dome of leather, plain and slightly smug about it.

This circular lidded leather box with an incised design is Tuareg, from West or North Africa, and is contemporary. It is leather & wood. Round lidded boxes are generally used to keep small valuables such as jewelry, amulets or personal goods safe and protected from dust. Cylindrical box with a gently rounded lid and a thin seam where it meets the body. The leather is soft and matte, with fine grain visible on top. There is no decoration at all, only a slight bump at one side. It is 2 inches high and 3.88 in diameter.

Plainspoken and rather proud of it.
