محفظة

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Hi everyone,

Again, a Libyan text. I know this generally means wallet, but I don't know in this context with the raw tobacco being filled into it, what it means.

إلا أن عكاز الجد دخل برقبته وسحبه قليلا إلى الأمام وقليلاً إلى الخلف، فسكت وانهمك في تزويد محفظة الجد بالنفة.

Thank you!

Tobacco pouch

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_pouch
A tobacco pouch is a pouch used to hold tobacco. They are often made out of leather, and once were made of sealskin. Rolling and pipe tobacco is often sold in a plastic pouch. The person who purchases the tobacco, if they own a tobacco pouch, will then transfer the tobacco from the plastic pouch to their leather one.
