"Guiding Light" - Antique Side Saddle

Antique Side Saddle

To save “the best seat in the house”, this sidesaddle was restored for a Kentucky museum. It was used during the late 1800’s by a school teacher who rode horseback every day to a country school where she taught. The bar liners or undersides were padded and covered with chocolate brown garment leather for softness. The seat and upright horn were padded and stitched with traditional original pattern using sand-colored suede leather. The rest of the saddle was redone in Wickett & Craig chocolate brown saddle leather and adorned with handmade brass buttons.
