leather pouch

Small animal-skin bag

A leather pouch is a small bag made of leather, typically closed by a drawstring, flap, or clasp.

Pouches store coins, tobacco, jewelry, or other small items and may hang from a belt or strap.

The term evokes something handcrafted or old-fashioned: He kept his dice in a leather pouch.

In anatomy, various body structures are called pouches, though not typically leather ones.
