Quality Sporrans for less money

A really nice Nicoll Brothers Bankfoot black "semi dress" sporran with seal (?) front 25 pounds.

For those not in the USA.

I had to look up the coat of arms, it's Fettes College.

The sporran is by WE Scott.

I did comment on a recent Fettes College Pipes and Drums video on YouTube letting them know they could get one of their sporrans back for 10 pounds. One of their pipers was missing theirs!

That's the thing about pipe bands: you issue kit but sometimes don't get it back when members leave the band.

Semi-dress probably by Nicoll Brothers $30.

Pound Shop! Two sporrans 99p.

Sadly there's no photos of the backs, and the seller is one of those irritating ones that says "as soon as the photos are taken our items are packaged for shipping so no additional information is possible" etc.

The backs would tell us who made it, where, and when, usually even if there's no stamps.

They do look UK-made. One sporran appears to have sealskin tassels.

A bit pricey for our brief at $50 but a sporran in the USA by Manacraft

Gorgeous brown leather and seal Day sporran, almost certainly by Nicoll Brothers (who sometimes just stamped their sporrans "Made in Scotland") and here in the USA so no import issues

A fine example, is that.

And the chain-strap appears to be nickel-silver diamond-cut curb-chain with now-rare Albert clips. Which is a bonus.

Good eye, I have an old chain-strap like that. I didn't know the terminology.
