New Sporran & Belt Buckle

[A Dhuglas]

Matt - how does one go about obtaining a Chi Rho buckle? I'm bringing others slowly into the kilt-wearing fold at seminary here in Columbia, SC and I think that buckle could become a desired birthday, Christmas, graduation, etc. item. I hope to get up your way sometime soon and visit the museum.

Looks great, Matt. Are these items going to be available from the gift shop [the sporran may already be]? Cheers

What about the belt itself? Plain-simple but nice.

How wide is that and where is it from?

It's a plan brown leather belt, about 2.25" wide. I had it made to wear with this buckle, right here in the museum. If someone wants one to go with their buckle, just let us know. It's not something we normally offer, but you might be interested in these:

See my above reply on the buckle. As for the sporran, it's a Ferguson Britt Duin Uasail Mor, which is listed here:

There are a few customizations to it that are not listed as options on the web site. One is you will notice a dark brown welt around the body of the sporran. The other is the addition of the brass tacks on the cantle. These are new features he's been toying with and are available as options on just about any sporran he makes, for a little bit more. Just let me know if you are interested.

The other thing is that this sporran is made from a natural light brown sheep skin, which is not a leather he normally offers (so it's not listed on line) but he happened to come across some. I think he might have enough left for another sporran or two, so if anyone is interested in a sporran from the same leather, let me know soon.

Well, it's not listed on the site yet (because I haven't got around to it -- will try to today), but you will be able to order it here from us:
