    Today for under $40 a leather and sealskin sporran by Margaret Morrison of Scotland:

    Here's her stamp



    More sealskin sporran bargains for non-USA buyers. For some unknown reason seals are protected endangered creatures in the USA but not elsewhere.

    Around $80, a beautiful Scottish-made evening sporran with silver-plated cantle in new condition (the cantle is a "canon" cantle, one very popular for at least the last half-century)

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/Scottish-Ma...0AAOSwUYNZ5ddn

    There's no stamp on the leather in back, but the cantle has the distinctive stamp seen for many years on the silver-plated versions of a few of the traditional "canon" cantles:



    Here's a different example of the "canon" EW1 cantle, silver-plated, high quality, the bosses are separate pieces; this bears the Made In Scotland stamp on the edge



    Same seller, same price, another quality sealskin evening sporran in great condition. This cantle is a more recent design.

    This sporran has a "Greenland Seal" sticker on the back, and a large stamp I've not seen before, "Hand Crafted In Scotland Genuine Leather"
