What a wonderful example of a very old saddle made into this lovely size saddlebag with solid brass fittings....The handle is a vintage brass & steel bit which is SO lovely in the hand or over the shoulder....The makers brass plaque has been added to bring the history to the foreground...The closure is a large brass original clip onto a brass headcollar coupling & the gusset is the ORIGINAL oil cloth underside of this ancient saddle....with this bones a vintage stirrup leather cross body/shoulder strap which is detachable with brass clips each side....A true original
