    For me the only item of interest is the traditional brown Scottish-made Day sporran, which I really like.

    Likewise the lot below has only one thing of interest, what appears to be a Scottish-made seal Evening sporran, though modern with bright nickel or chrome cantle.

    Interestingly the studs on the targe are the older-type nickel-silver.

    The other three sporrans are Pakistani, I'll wager. Look at how low the tab for the sporran belt is on all three of them, usually a telltale sign of Pakistani origin.

    Here's a c1980s WE Scott "semi dress" seal sporran, a nice example of that style, made when they were still using the gold oval Made In Scotland Real Leather stamp

    Here's one not unlike it, but later, with no stamp but rather a sticker. Once again a nice example of this style
