Next up are two belt pouches based on the viking 'Birka' pouches. Both of these pouches are a decent size for tobacco tins etc. both are 5.5 inches wide, 6.5 inches long, and 2 inches thick.


Brownie

3.5mm veg tan with a basket stamped border, dyed antique mahogany and brown. The gusset is made from Moose. Edges have been double loop laced with the highest quality kangaroo lace. Belt loop/strap is secured with rock solid copper rivets with my usual 'bashed to hell' sturdiness.

NOW SOLD

Bluey

Made from 2.5-3mm pre-dyed dark navy blue veg tan leather with basket stamped border. The gusset is made from natural veg tan with navy blue kid skin wrapped around it for a nice soft finish. Simple laced edges with high quality calf-skin lace. Belt/loop strap secured again with 'bashed to hell' copper rivets, with the extra security of a sam browne stud closure.

NOW SOLD

Viking Shoulder Bags

These bags are based on the historical hedeby/haithabu bag finds from the viking period. I have seen one or two examples online and saw some historical notes on them, but never understood just how ingenious they are until I made one (and then some!).

The wooden frames atop each bag act as the closure system. The rope strap is fed through the frames, which open along the rope. When the bag is released, the weight of it pulls both frames together and closes the bag. Because the closure works with the weight of the bag and tension of the rope, it is incredibly difficult for anyone to get their hand in the bag without lifting it up to release the tension. Therefor, it is reasonably pick pocket proof :)

The Goat

Made with a Norwegian goat hide, with reindeer hide trim, and sealskin straps. The goat has been cut and stitched in a way that the fur runs down all the way around the bag. All seams have been saddle-stitched, with inner seams also overstitched for extra strength. Wooden frames are an unknown wood, it looks and feels like teak but is a very light colour. Secured with sturdy copper rivets with a natural rope strap. bag dimensions (excluding wood) measures roughly 26cm long, 28cm wide, 14cm thick

Was £185 Now £135









The Sheep

This bag is reversible. It has a sheepskin outer, with a thick woolen liner. It can be turned inside out for a woolen outer which also looks nice. Both ways have nice hidden seams. All leather is hand saddle-stitched. The wool parts were machine stitched, but hand stitched to the leather. The wood is the same strange light teak-like wood and the strap is natural rope. bag dimensions (excluding wood) measures roughly 26cm long, 28cm wide, 12cm thick

Was £185 Now £135









Pictish Belt


NOW SOLD

Stonking prices Hamish, shame really as they're well priced already (coming from a fellow east coaster that's saying something!:eek:) Have forwarded it on to some hopefully interested parties. (Skint myself as we're of to Comrie Croft for a long weekend).

Good luck with the move and hope that the sales go well.

Love the belt. My daughter love it too, but it's a bit rich for me - sorry.

Somebody should buy it.

Love the belt Hamish. Wish I had some spare cash as it would then hang beside the other you did for me.
As always stunning work.
