Pair of Tibetan leather flint pouches dating from the 19th century, also known as a mechag or chuck muck. Traditionally used to carry flint and tinder for starting fires.
Each in leather with silver metal adornments. One has an ornate silver metal design with 2 coral and one turquoise accent, attached to original leather and rope cord. The other has silver metal studs and single coral accent, no cord. Sold as is, overall excellent condition, but they do have wear, as shown. Wear to leather, but metal detail seems secure.
