content: Dark green polyester brocade cloth, woven with a darker green key design. Yellow synthetic ribbon is stitched in a large golden key pattern on the front. Edges are bordered with black and gold brocade fabric. On the other side, the bag opens up from a slit down the center, which is edged in red and gold ribbon. This creates a pocket for the snuff bottle. The snuff bag is rather large as a reflection of the Mongolian's respect for snuff. Associated with men. Women often make bags like this one as a gift for men they love. (Video Footage, Tape 4, 7/10/02).
