The design of this 14th-century belt pouch is characterized by a rectangular shape with integrated loops for attaching it directly to the belt, while kidney pouches have a kidney-shaped base and bread bags are usually larger, sack-like, and often made of fabric. In the 14th century, this type of pouch was a universal accessory, particularly characteristic of the imagery of burghers, craftsmen, and travelers, as well as members of the working classes, because it allowed for practical and secure storage close to the body.
