New Barb Tewksbury Kilt

Yup, from another Tewksbury owner, I agree Barb does just top notch work. That's a fine looking kilt. Good choice on jacket and hose to go with it.

Once again, another Tewksbury masterwork. It's a beautiful, beautiful kilt.

From one lucky Tewksbury owner to another: welcome to the "fold"!

I'd suggest a friendly PM to her, here, through XMarks!

David,

I was thinking the exact same thing in reference to the Scott Adie catalogue when looking at your beautiful otter sporran! That particular style is very popular in the older catalogues, as well as wee books showing colour pictures of men in Highland day attire. I love the fact that the sporran still has the two paws, used for the 'tassels' ont he front of the sporran, a nice decorative touch by the sporran maker.

I like your sporran strap too; a rich brown with a brass buckle, is it McRostie? I came upon a very nice vintage, circa 1920's Scottish Wildcat full-mask sporran several years ago on Ebay, complete with three paws on the front - located just underneath the cat's head - I should have bought it right then and there, but instead, I stupidly waited to see if the price would drop, but much to my chagrin and disappointment, someone else had bought it! I learned my lesson that time around. How do you find these things (vintage sporrans/brass cantles) mate?!

Kind regards,
