The Jörmungandr: Nordic Dragon Sporran

$260.00

Our Nordic Dragon Sporran is made from premium black leather and has been outfitted with our Jörmungandr Interchangeable Flap, a gorgeous, custom-designed creature depicted in full relief. Jörmungandr’s sinuous body references the earliest textual descriptions of the Dragon, drawn from the Poetic Edda. His body contorted in intricate knotwork, Jörmungandr seems to protect and surround the center concho of the flap as if it is the great oceans of Midgard. This custom Jörmungandr design is exclusively available through Celtic Leatherworks!

Made from hand-selected top grain vegetable tanned leather, the Interchangeable Sporran Flap comes in various finishes including Classic, Chocolate, and Bronze, and has been distressed to give it an Old World feel. The color may vary slightly due to the nature of the hand-rubbed stain.

Sporran cords are accented with a variety of metal beads. Bead style may vary on each bag.

Description

About Jörmungandr (Norse Dragon/ the World Serpent):
Dragons were as much a part of the ancient world as the mountains and trees that surrounded the rustic people who embroidered upon their legendary existence. Not merely content to lurk in bodies of water or fly above the firmament, Dragons were credited with sculpting the very earth itself by the passage of their enormous bodies. Celebrated in a myriad of cultures in many different ways, Dragons took on a fantastic array of physical forms. None were more imposing than Jörmungandr, whose name literally means “huge monster” in the tongue of the ancient Norse. Also called the “Midgard Serpent”, Jörmungandr was so massive, that he was able to completely encircle the heavens, holding his tail in his mouth. His ongoing feud with the hero of men, Thor, was a constant theme of Norse mythology and religious culture. The final meeting of Thor and Jörmungandr has not yet been written; it will occur at Ragnarök, which is the Viking-age concept of Armageddon.

About Our Sporrans:
Like all of our products, our sporran is made from hand in our workshop right here in the USA. We hand select the beads on our leather drawstring cords to complement the bag, though bead colors may vary depending on what we have in stock.
This is the largest capacity sporran that we offer. It can easily accommodate a phone, wallet, keys, and more.

All of our themed sporrans come with an interchangeable flap that can be switched out for any other flap on our site, providing your bag with more versatility!

Functionality:
The bag utilizes a leather drawstring cord to close the bag at the top. The second leather cord is used to loop over the concho or clasp on the flap to hold it closed. The back of the sporran is reinforced at the top with vegetable-tanned leather. The flap attaches to the back of the bag at the top with heavy-duty snaps. There are two D-rings to attach the sporran to a belt. The loop will comfortably fit on a 2.5-inch belt should you choose to wear it that way.

Dimensions:
Flap only – 4.5 in W x 6 in L
Rob Roy Style Sporran Pouch only – 8.5 in W x 9 in H*
*By design, our sporran includes quite a few folds in the leather and is expandable beyond these dimensions.
