    OK I can see that the word patten "threw" your spell checker, or did you mean "through" your spell checker?

    I absolutely love that sporran from Mcrosties. Simple, elegant and well made. Beautiful.

    Yeah, me too.
    I want one. I have sufficient sporrans now, but resistance is futile!

    Its an ETSY purchase. Had custom work done to it in respect to the belt loop so it could accomodate a kilt belt. It came to me a uniform bronzed patine. I spent a few hours with steel wool, and sand paper up to 2000 grit and a buffer to get the silver finish to my liking. Costs? Just north of a Franklin.

    I'm no expert, but the design should be pre 1908. As I said, I'm no expert, so I might be wrong.

    All very conventional. From top down: silver plated; solid silver 19th Century; brass and copper; old brass; and old white metal. Too many really as I can only wear one at a time!
