Digging through old horse stuff and found Gypsum's double bridle. If one of my current ones ever gets that far in their training, that bridle won't fit them anyway.
It was expensive when I bought it, circa 2000. About $900, including the two bits. Both are KK. The bridle is a Weymouth with a low port, and the bradoon is double joined snaffle with a nice round lozenge in the middle. Tempted to keep that for bitting Hermosa, but I don't need the Weymouth.
I'm not going to post a picture of it in its entirety right now because it needs a lot of clean up and conditioner, but it has been stored in a cool, dry place for a while, so it's not mouldy or anything. But here is Gypsum wearing it.
I also don't remember who made it, but here is a close-up of the wee button on the side (ignore the dirt!). Does anyone recognise it?
Provided I get it cleaned up and shiny again, how much would it be worth?
