Good Luck Sidesaddle

Each flower and leaf of the Good Luck Sidesaddle has been drawn, carved and pushed up from behind to create high relief. Then we hand painted all the carving. Click on the image below to see the same affect for the classic horse head and tournament of roses collar.

Loren framed all the edges of the saddle with his famous round edge braiding, using kangaroo leather lace. The 530 inches of edges used 530 feet of kangaroo lacing, taking 80 hours of careful braiding.

The horns and seat and all the linings are padded with bright red, full-quill ostrich leather. The inlaid conchos are sterling silver. The hand braided reins are also kangaroo leather, and were made by renowned braider Jeff Minor.

This is our most romantic saddle yet—and as always, it is also rideable!

The set includes a matching bridle, breast collar, bit, reins and saddle blanket. A carved portfolio is also included and documents the making of the set.
