    Description

    Purchased in the early 1970s at La Tienda, the venerable ethnic arts gallery in Seattle's University District. Never used or displayed. Always kept in a trunk. 4'4" x 22". The leather is supple. A few of the thin decorative strips across the front have come loose, but they can be woven back into the remaining ones. Any flaws or patches are original to this handmade tent cushion sleeve.
    The Tuareg are a nomadic people living in a number of countries including Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal , Burkina Faso. Tuareg people are known as tough traders who travel from  place to place to buy and sell various  products. They are also known for their wonderful jewelry and their leather works such as this leather cushion sleeve.
