Some signs of age ! ? I would agree... The entire item is about to fall apart especially the spout and straps... I'm sure it is salvageable.
It looks African and I thought Tuareg. The tribal geometry on the leather work is stunning...

Whilst probably impossible to find another example as they are all different here are some other decorated leather items of Tuareg design..
