| Most of the Parade Saddles that I sell were created by famous makers Ted Flowers and Bruce Lovins. They made saddles 50 years ago using German Silver, Monel, Nickel and Aluminum metals. This was less expensive and more durable than Sterling, but looks like silver. I refurbish each rig as completely as possible while maintaining the original parts. These saddles weigh approximately 75 pounds including serapes, breast collar, etc. I buy/sell/refurbish more of these Flowers & Lovins saddles than anyone in the country so please call me if you have any questions. | ||
