Vintage African Milk Gourd with Beaded Panel and Cap

Vintage African milk gourd with a separate fitted cap, a dark leather-like strap and lower protective section, and a rectangular multicoloured beaded front panel with button details. The vessel has a tall narrow neck and rounded body.

General age-related wear is present, including dry, roughened and cracked leather-like sections, worn and uneven stitching at the cap seam, and scuffs, dark spots, staining and uneven colouration to the gourd. The cap interior is heavily darkened with residue or staining, with loose pale fibres near the rim. Fine cracks, repairs and overall structural condition remain uncertain.
