Menagerie Week Here Again
It's funny, but sometimes commissions come in waves. I might get 3-4 brass cantle orders at a time, or several horse hair sporrans back-to-back.
This time it was "Unusual Hides" time.
Fish Skins with Commissioner's Own Sigil tooling-

Detail

Zebra Hide With Crest

I found some kidskin embosses to look like elephant, so we used that for the rear

And a more typical hide-
Red Fox

With matching waistplate

Finally, no fur at all, but a pattern less commonly seen today-

Awesome work. I've come to expect no less than impressive things. I really like the red fox sporran. Is the cantle a cast piece in white bronze/brass/pewter?
