    African sporrans

    At our local Games over the weekend I saw a range of sporrans completely new to me.

    They're made in Africa (RSA).

    I am told that the same maker makes all the cantles as well as the leather & hide work.

    In person the Wildebeest fur looks quite like sealskin.

    So nice to see several traditional-looking cantles. The one with five bosses looks right out of the Highland Revival period!
