My version of a single tassel sporran.

[Harold Cannon]

After seeing one or our member's custom single tassel sporran I decided to make a similar one. It is a little different but quite similar. I have only finished the front plate and will be finishing it hopefully tomorrow.

That's a beauty Harold. What critter is the black fur?

[Harold Cannon]

Its bovine hide.

Harold... once again... I'm amazed! You are one talented gentleman.

Harold... once again... I'm amazed! You are one talented gentleman.

I'll second that!

A beautiful piece of work.

To change the subject slightly, what is the significance of tassels on a sporran?

[Harold Cannon]

From my understanding they are just a decorative representation of the closure strings on the older sporrans and pouches.

More fine work from you, Sir. Very clean, indeed.

Nice job Harold! Do post pictures of the fully-made sporran. I can see the family resemblance.
