A wonderful lady ordered this custom designed saddle from Victor in California in about 1970, after she graduated from high school. She requested the Cannabis Sativa tooling. The craftsman carefully placed the leaves so as to accentuate the lovely lines of this special-order saddle. Victor showcased this one-of-a-kind saddle with a full-page picture and description in one of his catalogs. The complete, original catalog will be a part of the provence provided to the winning Buyer. The catalog is a fantastic bonus to the value of this saddle. The actual color of the leather is just a hair darker than the first photo of the fender; kinda like the photo of the gullet. We\'re in Oregon; it\'s dark and rainy -- we use squirrels for our electricity and the lighting in our photos varies a bit. I left the patina on the sterling conchos, buckle and horn cap. You might be able to see some silver paste around a few of the conchos from the last time the owner cleaned the sterling. Since it is so much more difficult to acquire patina, I left it on the sterling. At the Buyer\'s request, I will clean the sterling before sending the saddle. This saddle never made it onto the back of a horse, and has been stored and on display in a temperate, indoor setting since delivery.
Seat: 16\" to the first line of stitching at the cantle
Semi-quarter horse bars
Sterling conchos; pattern \"Style F\" silver berry. These sterling conchos were made by hand in the Victor shop.
Tooling design is \"cannabis sativa\"
