interesting Eagle sporran
Unfortunately the seller is short on both photos and description.
The sporran is said to be "silver". I know how that can be! Ebay sellers describe things as "silver" all the time that aren't "silver" in the normal sense, that is, Sterling Silver. That being the case I'd like to see closeup photos of the hallmarks. (There are a number of photos of the front of the cantle, none showing the reverse.)
What's interesting to me is the Eagle motif. Yes I know Eagles show up frequently in European things but this Eagle has an American look to me. Is it just me? Might this sporran have been made for an American client?
And that pattern looks very familiar too, but I can't place it.
