Thanks lads, I'm thrilled it has received such a warm reception- it's certainly not 'standard issue', but it was a really special piece for me to make, and I guess that's sort of the point. Bespoke means getting exactly what you want,
even if it lies outside the norm.

Now, if you could pair a Rennie MacIntosh (or even Mucha) inspired cantle to a similar inspired Hunter sporran, and make it open...Well, I think you would have a new customer.
Hinged brass cantle or a modern 'hard body' hunter with a decorative metal cantle? Either can be done. I think Mackintosh's work probably lends itself better to a cantle, but Mucha could be done if we used a cloisonne' sort of process.

Thanks Mike! I was hoping to do just that. It was a balance between giving too much info or over-editing for the sake of brevity. I'm glad I seem to have hit the sweet spot in my narrating. Thanks also for the kind words.
