"Frank" Sporran
"Frank" Sporran   2005
brass, german silver, leather.  6" high


This sporran was crafted for an owner interested in medieval history, so evokes the image of a Frankish helm from the late 8th century.  Etched floral patterns and brass trimming reflect the special, decorative nature of the piece. The etchings in the quarterpanels areYggdrassl and Nedhogg, the mythological tree and dragon that struggle for influence over the universe, and have personal significance to the owner.
