    Where can I get a sporran like this

    Does anyone know where I can purchase a 'hunting' style sporran like the one HRH Prince Charles the Duke of Rothesay is wearing in the picture. I know this has been handed down to him and is not of modern manufacture. I particulary like the the fact that the front hinged section seems to be internal rather than external as we see in most modern hunting style sporrans.
    I'm looking for a nice light pigskin coloured sporran to go with a new pair of light tan brogues.
    Grateful for any input guys.

    Artificer can make that sporran; he's done it already!

    Scott (Artificer) is bl00dy brilliant, and a pleasure to work with.

    He'll exceed your expectations, I can tell you that.

    Behold this small picture of Scott's greatness:

    As one of this boards other artisans, I have to say that Artificer's sporrans are brilliant! I'm good at what I do... but that guy? He's a genius.

    +1 again. I've just commissioned a custom sporran using this as part of the design. Scott is also great to work with.
