The Valknut Sporran

$210.00$235.00

Our Valknut Sporran has been outfitted with our Valknut Interchangeable Flap, which is embossed with a design based on an ancient arcane symbol depicting three interlocking triangles. Referencing the Borromean Ring Valknut, our inspiration for this design is rooted in the Viking Age Sora Hammars stones in Gotland, Sweden. Included in a striking image of sacrifice over an altar, our depiction of the Valknut seems to best capture its importance to Viking culture.

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 the Valknut:
The ancient arcane symbol comprised of a triad of interlocking triangles has no firm historical context, though some scholars point to the 9th century Snoldelev Stone as a likely source for the design. On this stone, a conjoined trio of Viking-era drinking horns is featured, along with runes composed in the Younger Futhark alphabet. Other researchers consider it to be a variant of the Triskelion, while still others relate it to Odin. As a symbol of Odin’s power on earth, the Valknut may represent a binding rune or ritual used shortly before or after death in battle.

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.
