…Besides the metalwork is a small part of the sporran. It’s the fur that makes it:

Sealskin is hard to get now.

BTW any more than 2 tassels is boasting… 🙂

Got mine from Geoffrey Tailor in Glasgow as well.

There’s a wee shop in Sauchiehall street. It’s upstairs from an easily-missed doorway. They do some really nice hand-made (in Scotland) Sighean Dubhs and other bits and pieces at reasonable prices. Everywhere else I’ve ever looked has horrible plastic tat at twice the price.

I take it you have already discounted Tartan Trews ? So much more comfortable and practical you know….

Around Edinburgh you often see Highland gentleman, who have obviously come down to the big city for the day in their sunday best, usually a tatty old kilt or those knee-length trousers that look like they wore them in the war and a bunnet (sp ?).

I know a bloke who has a mould-making business in Burnley. He unpacks and distributes all the cast metal bits

Not much of a mould making business then?

Meantime, let’s talk ROADKILL SPORRANS
