Weird sporran
Was just surfing ebay and came across this sporran from a well know maker. This to me is really unpleasant, looks like some old dead thing thats about to try and eat you..........or even worse

Any other weird looking sporrans around?

Here's one of my favorite weird sporrans:

To me, that sporran with the rayskin insert would look great with a solid color, maybe more contemporary, kilt. Just my 2 cents though.

Good thing we all have different taste. I think I'd like it better without the toothy inside border around the panel. I like ray skin, but I would do it differently.

I would assume that they're trying to highlight the dorsal marking on the stingray pelt. But yes, it certainly conjures up some strange interpretations. I have a custom sporran that I made, but it's not necessarily strange - rather traditional but with well marked cow hide.

The most unique one I've seen is the full mask jackalope sporran. I don't know if I'd ever have a place worthy of wearing it, but I want one!

Re: Weird sporran
The rayskin sporran is different, but I wouldn't call it weird. I would probably like it better if the brown insert trim wasn't toothed. Taste is a very personal thing. I once saw another rayskin sporran that was done in a very traditional style, and I would chose the sporran pictured here over the more traditional one that I saw for sale, but I tend to choose what I like over tradition.
