The WW1 Canadian CEF Black Watch 5 Tassel Hair Sporran is a period military uniform accessory issued to members of the Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) serving with the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. This sporran is constructed from black horsehair with a traditional leather cantle and features five distinctive horsehair tassels, each suspended by white cords. The body of the sporran is rounded and is designed to be worn at the front of the kilt, functioning as both a decorative and practical pouch. The leather cantle typically includes a fastening strap at the rear. The five-tassel sporran design is closely associated with the regimental dress regulations of Highland regiments, including the Black Watch, and would have been worn during formal occasions, parades, and ceremonial duties both in Canada and abroad. This artifact exemplifies the traditional Scottish military dress maintained by Canadian Highland units during the Great War era.
