In falconry, a lord would use a magnificent bird-of-prey, the falcon, to kill another bird or other small game. A falcon is a fiercely intelligent bird that is trained by the lord's falconer. Archaeologists have found evidence of falconry in the Middle East dating back to the 1st century BC. Historically, falconry was a popular sport, and status symbol, among the nobles of Medieval Europe and feudal Japan; in Japan it is called takagari. Falconry remained a status symbol long after falconry was no longer popularly practiced.

Available with wolf or dragon heads on the lid.

Our Huntsman's Sporrans are 6 inches (150 mm) tall and 8 inches (200 mm) wide, and have an expandable interior depth of approximately 1.5 inches (38 mm). They can easily fit on any belt 3 inches wide or smaller.

Our Huntsman's Sporrans are crafted from fine, durable dark brown top grain leather with expertly woven belt loops. The lids and mounts are hand cast in bronze or sterling silver, and are mounted with Chicago screws, and can be removed for cleaning. The lid is secured shut with a thong that loops over an integral hook in the lid and that can be drawn down tightly and tied.
