    My new sporran


    This is a recent purchase from ebay. It has the character I was looking for in a sporran. Somewhat plain and rugged looking. I think it will go well with the Fraser hunting tartan. I'm still waiting on the straps, so I cannot post a pic of myself with it on quite yet. I would welcome any thoughts or opinions on this accessory.

    That's beautiful. Did they dye the leather to get the "antiqued" look?

    Wow, what a great looking sporran!

    Well, from a fellow Fraser, you've made a good choice there!

    I love the antiqued look particularly. It'll look beautiful on top of Hunting Fraser. I trust you're getting brass chains instead of silver, and possibly a brass belt buckle as well?

    Cheers, your clansman,

    That is a uniquely handsome sporran! That's a great find on eBay.
