    Hamish,

    The sporran design is based on the Banner of the Duchy of Cornwall.

    More info can be found here:

    Nice kilt Hamish. I have one in the Cornish Hunting tartan, which really just replaces most of the yellow with a dark green. I love it because I can simultaneously show off my Scottish/Cornish descent.

    Ham,
    What a wonderful kilt, and a great Tartan as well. The dress look is positively outstanding!
    I too am a Steelers fan, so I love the black and yellow.
    I wouldn't have noticed anything amiss with the buckle, though I am still a newbie to the whole scene.
    As always, you look greta, and the rest of us are green with envy!

    Shane,

    Thank you so much for this link AND for the Duchy one also. They give me an excellent starting point for my research.
