    Mink, Nickel and Moose dress sporran


    Here's one I just finished. Nickel plated hand made brass cantle with mink front. Per request of my stepson I added some moose antler.
    sorry about the file size I thought I selected a compressed file.

    Thumbs up

    Wonderful sporran! I'm currently working on a coyote semi-dress myself.

    The cantle is handmade and cut from a lamp base and I had it nickel plated.

    The use of a lamp base is CLEVER! I wish that you or someone on the forum would offer those solid nickel or nickel plated brass cantles for sale, Scott. Yes I know about those for sale overseas, and the Sialkot Pakistan variety, but would prefer to buy them stateside (and without the exorbitant shipping costs).

    Mike, I may make some in the future for sale. This cantle was actually the other half of the lamp base I used on a black sporran I made a year or so ago.
