    Re: Show us your sporrans...

    I agree with Richard's comment, that is a nice looking sporran with a 19th-century look to it - I used to own an L&M muskrat full-mask sporran, as well as an L&M bespoke horsehair sporran with the same 'Prince Charlie' style cantle - both have since been sold off and replaced with more bespoke, Kate Macpherson full-mask sporrans...as well as a bespoke goat hair sporran with an Ian Grant silver cantle, that I shall be commissioning Kate, shortly. Well done Highland Logan! L&M makes great stuff, and it appears they are located very close to you in Nova Scotia!

    It's interesting to see the vast amount of difference between full-mask sporrans made of North American animals, versus full-mask sporrans made in Scotland with native species there. For instance, the L&M badger is so much larger and has a lot more hair than their Scottish counterparts. It is very interesting to see the differences.

    Cheers,
