Superb traditional Berber man's leather bag from the 1930-40's from the Marrakech workshop of the Jewish artisan Karel.

I really like it; It is called in Berber '' Ajbir''

Nice, should be a cavalier small bag
Actualychkara is not the right name, ajbir, tamouzit are right names,it depends the region

It reminds me of the small ones I had years ago with silver that were meant for Jewish use. I love those also.

Thanks a lot all. Yes, it is a very nice one. Actually I find it quite difficult with names. I get them from different sources (Besancenot, B. Flint, P. Eudel and other reference books) but then you find local different names. That not to say about the variations in the spelling of the same word ...
