Yeah I would say it depended on the overall look of the sporran. I probably prefer three though.

I have to say at least three, if not 9 or 12! But is has to be a multiple of three.....

A good theological description of the Holy Trinity - three tassles on the one sporran!

I'd agree with P1M, Panache, Anderson and Robin on this; Either 3 or 0.
Two of my sporrans each have 3 tassles and my other one is a plain black leather sporran with no tassles.

On a more serious note though, is there any significants to the number or is it just personal preferance on decoration? I never thougt about it before, but now I'd like to know.

It's simply personal prefference.

The number of the tassles shall be three. No more, no less. Three shall be the number of the tassles, and the number of the tassles shall be three.
And I see that the sporran in the link Cavscout posted has 1...2...5!!!
Cheers,

Where 4 Scotsmen gather there'll usually be a fifth.
