Do you want to repair the missing pieces?
Are the missing pieces around?
Can't figure out if it's leather, though!
Leather Bond-3D is the product for bonding repair.
For filling the gaps work with Bond-3D + leather fibers (scrape from suede side of leathers) Stucco-90 in such high flex areas will soon crack again.
More details pictures from different angles may help.

Is this a Burberry Bag?
Prior to bonding repair the surface has to be restorative cleaned with Prep-4.4 > Cleaner-3.8 > Rinse-3.0 > Hydrator-3.3 > Fatliquor-5.0.
Dry prep thereafter may include fine 1500grit sanding, brushing and Eraser-4 where necessary to remove foreign residue.
This is a handle that is subject to stress and constant flexes material uses have to match its usage, otherwise repairs will fall apart too soon.
To replace the missing leather use a black dyed leather suede (reverse side of leather) and scrape off the fibers with Razor-60 as filling with Bond-3D. Tint the Bond-3D with Aniline Dye-21 black and do the filling to build the missing leather up with help of hair dryer for fast drying. Bond-7A is to readjust the shape of the repair to soften it and rework with leather Spatula-6. In between repairs black dyes can be done with a cotton swab to keep it black. To match existing “patent” gloss topcoat use Topcoat-56G.
