Description :

Distinctive spirits bottle wrapped in hand-tooled leather, featuring a matching leather stopper and a metal Cognac tag. The craftsmanship suggests mid-20th-century European origin, with stylistic parallels to decorative bottles produced in France, Spain, and Italy during the 1960s–1970s. These were often sold as souvenir decanters or gift items, blending rustic charm with artisanal detail.

The leatherwork — including stamped motifs and stitched seams — adds a tactile, vintage character uncommon in mass-produced glassware. Bottles like this were sometimes used for Cognac, brandy, or fortified wines, and are now sought after for display, bar décor, or collector interest.

Historical note:

Leather-wrapped bottles gained popularity in postwar Europe as decorative exports, often reflecting regional craftsmanship. The use of tooled leather and metal tags evokes a blend of rustic elegance and utilitarian design, with roots in both Spanish souvenir culture and French spirits branding
