#6 'Day' Sporran - Completed (Commission)

[BoldHighlander]

Terry, I'm glad everything arrived in good order. If you have any questions, just shoot me a PM or email. I used a new sporran 'keeper' for shipping, hopefully it did it's job of protecting the leather during it's journey. I felt that the bubble wrap was too scratchy on it's own against that soft, soft leather.

It worked great Scott

I did note that the slightest touch with a fingernail would leave a scuff mark, which easily rubbed out with my thumb!

What tartan did you order from our Matt? I assume it'll be a 4yd box-pleat?

Yep, 4yd box-pleat in Macdonell of Keppoch Ancient (Lochcarron 16oz strome):

*note -- the colours are just a wee bit darker in the photo than in the actual tartan:

Yeah, it's a really soft pull-up. I think it may be one of my favorite leathers I've ever seen.

I'm glad the microfibre storage bag kept if from getting scuffed in the post.

As I said on the care sheet, if it gets a scuff that won't pull up with just a rub of the hand, try a very light buffing with Zymol conditioning creme.

Oh, man! That's going to look wonderful! I'm currently in the planning stages (ie, dreaming) about a Newsome box pleat in the Longford County, Ire. tartan (which I also think would looks smashing with this leather).

NICE!

I agree!
