RARE, AUTHENTIC, ANTIQUE, INDO-PERSIAN, HAND-FORGED CAVALRY SADDLE HORSEMAN STIRRUPS ~ Weighing Approximately 1-3/4 Pounds, and Measuring Approximately 6 inches high x 5-1/2 inches across x 2-1/4 inches thick ~ mx-053 ~ ITEM # arm-091 ~ I was advised that the Stirrup that has an Iron Loop on the lower side, would have a long Leather Strap or Rope attached, with the other end of the Strap or Rope being attached to a wide belt around the Rider’s waist. This served the purpos...e of the Rider being able to rescue himself if knocked off or fell from his horse by being able to drag himself away from the enemy and back towards his comrades. In addition, the Rider could also rescue a fallen comrade by riding close enough to the fallen victim to drag him from danger ~ ~ Look Over the Photos Provided as they are a major part of the Description ~This Item shows some wear commensurate with age and use… yet remaining in Very-Nice Condition Overall, especially for it’s age… and It Will Make an Excellent Addition for Your Collection, Display or a Fantastic Gift!!!~ **** Ask any /all Questions Before Making Purchase ****~*~ We ship within the United States... and will ship outside the U.S. (Internationally), only via eBay's Global Shipping Program. ~*~This Item will be Professionally Wrapped, Padded and Packaged with 40 Years of Shipping Experience – Fully Insured – with Tracking Number.
