Small everyday pouch
By Nour Benkirane · Medina, Fez, Morocco
Every piece on Amussu is a one-off. If you want this, you take it now.
Either way, you are buying from Nourdirectly. The fee model and the relationship are the same — the only thing that changes is whether the piece already exists.
Cards, coins, a key. A small pouch I keep making because people keep asking. Snap closure with a brass stud.
Saddle-stitched in waxed linen. Lined with a thin felt to soften the contents.
The person who made this.
My workshop is on the second floor of a building near Bab Boujloud. I cut and stitch goat leather by hand. I do not use a sewing machine. Most pieces I make are bags, satchels, and belts. I learned from my uncle, who learned from his father. I do not take more than four collaborations at a time because saddle stitching is slow and I am not willing to rush it. Tell me the size, what you carry, and how you want it to age, and I will tell you whether I am the right person for it.
