Erenhill Chinese Quiver – Leather Quiver for 13 Arrows
Erenhill Chinese Quiver is a lightweight and compact leather archery quiver featuring 13 individual arrow loops and one integrated pocket.
It is intended for archers who want organised and easily accessible arrows for traditional, instinctive, 3D, field or recreational archery.
Erenhill Brand
The quiver is offered under the Erenhill Brand.
Its Chinese designation refers to the styling and broader environment of traditional Chinese archery.
Historical Chinese quivers existed in a variety of forms and materials. This contemporary product is therefore not presented as an exact reproduction of a specific historical quiver, dynasty or military unit.
Historical Chinese quivers
Archery formed an important part of Chinese military and equestrian culture over many centuries.
Museum collections preserve Chinese bow cases and quivers from the 17th to 19th centuries made from materials including leather, textile and metal fittings.
These surviving examples demonstrate that there was no single universal construction that can represent every historical Chinese quiver.
13 individual arrow loops
The quiver features 13 separate arrow loops, giving each arrow an individual position.
This layout provides:
- organised arrow storage,
- quick access to individual arrows,
- easier monitoring of remaining arrows,
- separation of individual shafts,
- consistent drawing during dynamic shooting.
Actual compatibility depends on the diameter of the arrows used.
Integrated pocket
In addition to the 13 arrow loops, the quiver features one integrated pocket.
Depending on the size of the equipment, it can be used for:
- additional arrows,
- a spare bowstring,
- shooting glove or tab,
- string wax,
- small archery accessories.
The pocket should not be overloaded or used for unprotected sharp items that could damage the leather.
Compact 27 × 19 cm construction
The quiver measures approximately 27 × 19 cm.
Its compact size can be practical when moving between targets, walking through a 3D course or during dynamic training.
Long arrows will naturally extend further above such a compact quiver, so their position should be checked before rapid movement.
Approx. 200 g weight
The empty quiver weighs approximately 200 g / 7.1 oz.
Its low weight reduces unnecessary load during longer training sessions and movement through terrain.
The total carrying weight will depend on the arrows and equipment placed in the pocket.
Calf leather
The quiver is made from chemically softened calf leather.
As leather is a natural material, individual pieces may vary slightly in grain, texture and shade.
Regular use may gradually create a natural patina.
Stitched and riveted construction
The construction combines stitching and rivets.
During regular use, inspect:
- stitching,
- rivets,
- all 13 arrow loops,
- the pocket,
- attachment areas.
Right- and left-handed versions
The Chinese Quiver is available in right-handed and left-handed versions.
The appropriate configuration should be selected according to the archer's preferred carrying and arrow-drawing position.
Colour options
Available colour combinations are:
- Black–White,
- Black–Red,
- Black–Blue,
- Black–Brown,
- Black–Yellow.
The colour option changes the appearance without altering the basic construction.
Traditional and instinctive archery
Individual arrow storage can be useful for traditional and instinctive archery, allowing the archer to repeatedly reach for arrows from a defined position.
The quiver can be combined with suitable traditional, reflex and Asian bows and with appropriate wooden, carbon or aluminium arrows.
3D and field archery
The low weight and compact construction also make the quiver suitable for 3D and field archery.
Before entering a course, check the quiver attachment, all 13 loops, the pocket, stitching, rivets and secure arrow storage.
Competition use must comply with the rules of the relevant discipline.
Leather care
Protect the calf leather from prolonged moisture, excessive heat and aggressive cleaning products.
If the quiver becomes wet, remove the arrows and pocket contents and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature.
Do not dry leather directly on a heater or another intense heat source.

Erenhill Chinese Quiver is a compact leather archery quiver featuring 13 individual arrow loops and one integrated pocket.
It measures approximately 27 × 19 cm, weighs around 200 g and is available in right- and left-handed configurations and several colour combinations.
Its design is suitable for traditional, instinctive, 3D, field and recreational archery.
