Yes it was.
Do we know why here are holes in it? (moth holes, bullet holes, hard uses or simply busted threads?)
Possibly, (and we would know that how), yes.
As for usage, could it have been used as a cushionned seat in a carriage or an old open car? (meaning out in the opened air and not indoors) Maybe even under a saddle?
Getting there. Think form but as to function - who knows.
