These shoe shaped stirrups are made of nickel . The style is known as a "Conquistador" stirrup, but they probably date from the early 20th Century. The shape would protect the rider's feet from injury. Both stirrups are decorated with an engraved foliate pattern . Their bases are stamped with a knotted horn the number 322 and makers mark "Eberle" and "Solid Nickel". There are circular drainage holes in the base of each stirrup - these could be used to hang the stirrups on a wall. These were working tools and they have a couple of small dents from use.
