Default Unmarked Texas Jockstrap

I picked this up a while back when I needed a holster for a 5" 38/44 HD. It is unmarked and I was hoping someone here might recognize the maker.
Shown here on the right next to a Myres.


The carving is deeper than a Myres, but maybe not quite as well laid out. Or maybe I just prefer the Myres and Heiser style of flowers.

It is very well built and probably made for a barrel longer than 5". It is machine stitched except for where the so-called jock strap attaches to the skirt, which is hand stitched. I thought I remembered someone posting one before that looked like the strap was attached to the skirt in the same manner, but I could not find it by doing a search. The holster is nicely lined and the lining extends all the way down the back.


When I tried to fold the holster out from the skirt to search for any markings, it would not budge, and I found that the holster was stitched to the skirt at the very bottom.

Regards,
Bruce

Gorgeous. The diminutive strap and the fine stitching make me think Mexico.
