TUAREG, AFRICAN BRAIDED BAG, CAMEL BAG, LEATHER BAG, SHELL BAG, ANTIQUE BAG
I don't know what or who made this bag. I have had this appraised by several appraisers and the majority have said it was from west Africa and possible sub-saharan origin. Another one said he thought it may be Native American. It is made from a thin leather with the strips cut approximately 1/32 to 1/16 inch wide. I don't believe the leather is deer but believe it may be a smaller animal such as raccoon or rabbit since the leather is thin. The bag itself is woven with cowry shells and abalone tied into strips across the entire front. The leather is becoming somewhat brittle and some of the beads/shells are missing as is the strap on the right side. The bag measures 17 inches tall and 13 inches wide. The bag is extremely well made and must have taken a considerable amount of time. Patience and expertise to produce.

Tuareg crosses were originally worn by men, and passed down from father to son with the words, My son, I give you the four corners of the world because one cannot know where one will die.

They are worn by men and women of other tribes throughout west Africa, and are used as currency to buy cattle and food. The different designs are named for different oasis villages.
