This style of 'Spanish' Saddle was made from the mid 1840s through the 1860s. In the Victorian era, often any saddle with a horn was referred to as a Spanish or Mexican saddle.
Our saddle is patterned after many originals and styled after one that is in the General Sweeney Museum near Republic, Missouri. It is made of heavy harness leather and features a tooled half seat, fenders, and skirts. It has a decorative pommel guard, hooded stirrups, and a high pommel and horn.
Includes girth so this saddle is ready for you to ride.
These saddles were very common and were produced from Florida to Missouri and to California. Before the War in the 1850s, Thornton Grimsley was making the Spanish Saddle in St. Louis, Missouri.
(Also available without the girth.)
