Headstall with Silver

This headstall has a LOT of silver looking decorations on it. It is NOT real silver and I don’t even think it is silver plate. I would consider this to be a very beginning headstall for someone trying to show on the open/schooling circuit on a budget. I shined it up a bit by rubbing it with a fine steel wool and it looks pretty good. There is a nice gold overlay pattern on the silver and the leather is in good repair, but it is a bit dry. I oiled it some but I think it needs another good oiling. $15.00

15" Barrel Saddle by Saddle King

This is a nice little barrel racing style saddle hand crafted by Saddle King of Texas, it has a 15” sued seat and a 7” (full quarter horse) gullet. The tooling is a combination of basket weave and floral. This saddle has a nice deep seat and a higher back to help keep the ride secure in the saddle and a raised horn for grabbing. This saddle is an older Saddle King model so I think it’s a little better quality then the new mass produced ones of today. $300.00

Vintage Hand Tooled Saddle with Buckstitching

Here is a really nice saddle sold by Montgomery Wards I’m guessing sometime during the 50’s or 60’s. This saddle says Made in Mexico but it was back in the days when Mexican made saddles had some quality to them. The tooling is hand carved in the classic oak leaf pattern, the buckstiching is solid and clean and the tree is sound. It has a 7” gullet (full quarter horse bars) and a 15 ½” suede seat. $300.00




I have a matching breast collar and halter that go with the saddle.

Shipping Boots

Here is a nice selection of shipping boots. The prices range from $10.00 to $20.00

All of them have 4 to the set (two fronts and two backs) They have all been used, I have washed them all so they are ready to use.

The Weatherbetta set has some tearing on the inside of one of the boots but is still usable as is. The set on the far left is more of a standing wrap then a shipping boot. This set sells new for $70.00

Vintage Ranch Saddle, needs restoration

This poor old ranch saddle has been pretty much used up. The leather is worn, the tooling is barley discernible and the fleece is completely gone. The horn and tree are still sound. You could have it restored or use it as a ranch/western decoration in your house or barn if you like that sort of thing. I've even seen people nail them around the trunk of a tree at the end of their driveway - whatever floats your boat. $75.00

Synergist Endurance Saddle - SOLD

This is an endurance saddle made by Synergist Saddles, they are a very popular maker of quality custom endurance saddles. A new custom endurance saddle from Synergist today starts at $2300.00!!!! This saddle has a 15” seat and a 7” gullet, it is an older model that originally had a horn, the owner cut the horn off and there is electrical tape wrapped around the cantle to tide the hole. That is the only reason why the price on this saddle is so low. If you did a nice leather wrap I think it would look a lot better, I’ll leave that up to the buyer. The saddle comes with a neoprene girth and a sheepskin saddle pad. $700.00
