Afro-Celtic Sporrans, Cape Town

Cape Town - at the southern tip of Africa - is home to a small artisan workshop that creates and produces an original and unique range of hand-crafted SPORRANS for kilt wearers and collectors around the world.

Infinite care is taken in the design and selection of each element as well as in the crafting of the final sporran, so ensuring that no two are ever exactly the same.

There is a distinctive fusion of iconic elements born in these two cultures, Celtic and African.

CELTIC knotwork with its characteristic zoomorphic and anthropomorphic interlaced intricacies in the silverware, melded with the exotic textures and colours of indigenous AFRICAN game skins and Nguni hides.

There’s also the occasional Scotland-particular Rampant Lion, stag and St Andrews forms for good measure.

• Only hides from animals indigenous to Africa are used
• All hides are from animals not listed on the CITES endangered species list
• Only hides from animals harvested in normal managed farming resources are chosen
• All hides used have undergone a certificated tanning and curing process

The CELTIC KNOTWORK CANTLE mountings are

• Entirely our own creation and design

• Nickel-silver plated and will not tarnish
