Pictish Wolf Satchel

[Dreadhead]

Another satchel fresh from the workshop

Made from soft/supple 3mm veg tan with a 1.6-2mm panel stitched on the front, tooled with the Pictish Wolf from the Keillor stone in Scotland. Closure is a simple antler toggle. Adjustable strap with a brass buckle. All hand saddle-stitched.

Approx dimensions are 22cm long, 18-20cm tall, and 5-6cm deep. The strap is about 1cm wide so very lightweight. A rather simple, light and compact wee bag.

£125. Please PM me to secure. Thanks

You make some remarkable things mate, that wolf is a beautiful rendition. How old is the original Scottish artwork on the stone?

Thanks The stone itself dates from the 8th century and is just outside of Coupar Angus. The carving is pretty hard to make out, but was re-drawn by an artist by the name of Craig Low. It was his rendition I used for this as it flows so nicely. It also resembles the Ardross wolf somewhat too which is clearer on the actual stone.

Gorgeous

Thank you
