Totally agree with Marc, middle of 20th century, and the leather work is from Saharan west Africa as noted. This seems a unique form of decoration especially on the guard, the woven leather styling, most unusual IMO.

Thank you Marc and Jim,

The unusual crossguard construction was the reason why I bought it!
