    That's gorgeous!

    It has that wonderful authentic old-school look that 99.9% of modern sporrans don't have.

    For perspective here's the Anderson 1936 catalogue. Look at all those lovely sporrans! How nice it would be to get one! Seems to me that's pretty much what you've done.



    And their illustration of this sporran being worn. Note the traditional combination of brown sporran and black shoes.

    Thanks , Richard !

    Tim , at the House of Labhran , made a comment to me during the making of this sporran that I thought was very noteworthy and very much agrees with your statement .

    His comment was : " We try to make the antiques of the future "

    I found that very commendable .

    Best regards , Mike

    I've been wanting to add a brown sporran. That one looks fantastic.
    Thanks for sharing.
