Did Anyone Get This For A Steal?
This sporran sold on EbayUK this morning (Australian time) for GBP41.00. At first look it appears rather ratty but can you see the knobs at the side which indicates it's a functioning cantle.
It was described as thus
A genuine antique Scottish sporran, probably Victorian. Silver? plated cantle with pictish style circular designs. Approximately 9 inches high, 6 inches wide.
It is in used vintage condition with signs of age/use, please see images.
A lovely piece of historical vintage Scottish dress, sold with NO RESRVE!


In my opinion whoever won it got a blinder of a bargain. With a little work, maybe replating and perhaps a new bag, I think it would make a wonderful sporran
