1860’s Victorian Goat Hair Antique Scottish Dress Sporran
1860’s Victorian Goat Hair Antique Scottish Dress Sporran
An interesting cantle engraved and pierced design enhances the traditional charm of this sporran. The pouch opens with a lift-up center to a knob catch, providing quick access to essentials. Moreover, there is a small internal coin pocket nestled inside the main pouch, adding practicality to its elegant design.
The front goat hair has been meticulously restored, with a generous amount of authentic goat hair added to revive the sporran with a genuine touch reminiscent of the distinctive style seen in the watercolors of 'Highlanders of Scotland' by Kenneth MacLeay.
The cantle displays two minor splits in the silver along the outer edges, which have been carefully stabilized. Our approach to restoration is cautious, aiming to preserve its authentic antique appearance.

A Sporran is a pouch (Scottish Gaelic for ‘purse’). Now a decorative part of Highland dress, it was originally an everyday practical item. Made of leather or fur, it usually has more or less elaborate silver or other ornamentation, especially on the clasp or hanger. It is worn on a chain or belt around the waist, allowing the sporran to lie below the waist of the person wearing a kilt.
