Latest Creations by The Dapper Dead...

Well it's been a busy few weeks here at Dapper Dead HQ with all sorts of new goodies appearing in the SHOP.  Here's a small selection of what's been going on...

Kid's Sporrans £50

Picture
With so many sporrans being made there are always bits of material left over.  With that in mind, I have now got a wide variety of sporrans available for children.  These tiny sporran are completely functional and able to open and close, just like an adult sporran.  Perfect for sweets and money! 

Black Feather Handbag £90

Picture
Vintage rooster feathers on a beautiful black leather satchel style bag. Comes with loops for attaching to a belt to be worn as a hip bag for men (in place of a sporran) or, if required, with a removable strap to be worn as a shoulder bag / cross body bag for women. Strap can removed to make this a perfect dainty clutch bag for special occasions. Available now in the shop for only £90!

Fox Tooth Molar Ring Back in Stock: £15

Picture
Due to the overwhelming popularity of the rings we stocked earlier in the year, I have created 2 more which are now available in the shop.  £15 including worldwide postage. Comes on adjustable antiqued brass ring so fits any claw

Crocodile Texture Sporrans £90

Picture
Something new from something old...this old handbag from a vintage shop was falling apart but had a gorgeous reptile skin style textured leather front. There are now two amazing sporrans made from it instead!  £90 each.

Fox and Rabbit Fur Pouches

Picture
Picture
Something new today..sporran pouch design with less rigidity than my usual sporrans. This would be ideal as a hip pouch or sporran for a more casual outfit or for cosplay and LARP where you need a vintage style bag. Only £75 for the fox and £50 for the rabbit.  Can be purchased in the shop and can be made to order from any of the furs I have in stock.

Taxidermy workshop locatiOns

How would everyone feel about travelling to mine for a taxidermy lesson? Would Bridge if Marnoch be ok for most of you? 


I have the perfect workspace here and can collect people from the train station in Huntly :) 


Just a thought as it's tricky to find an accommodating venue in Aberdeen centre and my barn is sitting here with plenty space! 


Let me know opinions below!
