    Not a unique sporran, but a picture I like a lot:



    This, however is a picture of my unique sporran (and a good friend long missed):



    That's the best picture I have. It's an A_Hay! sporran. It has a Celtic wolf on the flap. I may get a better picture of it tomorrow.

    Here's what I wear now:



    Here's my little collection of old cantles:



    Here's some of my all-time favourite vintage sporrans, all of which have come up on Ebay over the years and I grabbed an image:

    Someone asked for a clearer photo of the Stingray sporran.


    If anyone is interested in getting a Ferguson Brit sporran in Stingray leather, just contact me.

    Thanks M. A. C., that was me. That really is a gorgeous sporran!

    After looking at Mr. Britt's web page, I discover leather cantles aren't as unique as I'd believed (just expensive) Oh well, it's be a boring day if I didn't learn something new.

    I think Lamar is working on one right now, very similar to the one in the picture, unless I'm mistaken. I recall that it's an Inverarnan style; same model I wear, but in black leather and ray skin.

    Interested parties should certainly jump on that.

    modern sporrans

    Bilt Kilt has a couple unique sporrans:




    And Sporran Nation has tons. Here's a few selections:

    - An t'arm breac dearg

    OC Richard, I love those cantles... as antiques, do you feel it's better to leave them alone? Or have you considered having a sporran built around one or two of them?

    This is the most unique sporran I've ever seen. I can't say it's a favorite. It was on ebay and I decided not to bid on it (even as a curiosity). Someone said they thought it was a weasel

    I'm afraid that one looks a little...ahem...iffy. Can you imagine the comments you might get.

    Not to slag on another's artistic endeavors, but I think you made the right decision not 'pulling the trigger' on this one.
