Kate Macpherson Sporrans Video
Hello all,
Below is an interesting video (also featured on Kate's website) depicting the process of how Kate Macpherson creates her sporran masterpieces. I am a proud owner of three Kate Macpherson sporrans, both of which are head-on animal sporrans: one Mink, one Scottish Pine Marten, and one Badger. Kate's head-on sporrans are very traditional, and much more unique than the other more mass-produced sporrans. Also, head-on animal sporrans are acceptable for wear for any occassion - ranging from tweedy day attire to the fullest of full-dress evening attire, making them extremely versatile.
I am quite confident that I will order many more head-on sporrans from Kate, as well as horsehair sporrans for evening wear. Kate does accept commissions and her skill and craftsmanship as a traditional sporran maker is second to none (she is a former taxidermist). I am proud to inform others of her unique talent and business, as well as having the distinct honour of calling her "cousin", for she is a Macpherson clanswoman in which I know personally. Enjoy.
