I think it is the simplicity that attracts me. Although very pleasing the dense knotwork has almost become a byword for any Scottish leatherwork - almost a pastiche of itself.

I notice that the clip has a matching saltire - was that a period feature or happy coincidence?

And what material and shape should a buckle be?
