Description

These are a pair of brown leather stirrups. The stirrups are triangular in shape, starting small at the top and getting wider at the bottom. Under the leather is a peice of wood, where the foot would go. The wood is also in the same shape of the leather, it is small at the top and wider at the bottom. There is also a bigger piece of wood at the top (also behind the leather) that is probably used to attach the stirrups to the saddle.
