Please show some more pictures of the quiver with arrows in it.  I can't visualize how it works.  This is a fantastic looking quiver.  BTW, how do you make use of Catfish skin for a covering?  Can I assume this was a horse archer quiver?

Thanks. It's been still drying (especially the inside part) so I can not put any arrows in it. In this style of quiver feathers down, tips up (this is the reason for this sand-clock shape). Catfish skin is a popular material in Hungary to provide water-resistance. We also use it to cover bow's back. And it is extremely strong.
Here is a video about the use of the quiver:
