Elegant finely hand crafted and heavy weight early 20th century solid 800 silver life size (circa 37 foot number) slipper style lady stirrup, engraved with flower and ornate openwork with set amethyst. A similar example is in the Brooklyn Museum collection This elaborately decorated slipper-style stirrup is a luxury example of riding equipment for women. The ladies of Lima, Peru, were renowned for their grace on horseback, and since they rode side-saddle, their stirrups were made singly rather than as part of a pair.
