The rear edges of the of the seat, skirt, and fenders are ornamented with silver spiral twists. The pommel rises approximately 3 1/2 inches above the swell and is fairly large in diameter in the roping style. The seat measures at approximately 16 1/4 inches.

The tack includes a bit with nose band, browband, headstall, and throatlatch, most of which is heavily ornamented with engraved silver panels mounted with turquoise stones.

Rating Definition:

Very fine overall, the leather remains supple with crisp tooling and its attractive chestnut color. Very minimal wear overall. Most of the silver accent pieces display an attractive antique patina and all of the turquoise pieces appear to be present.
