4 Medieval / Post European Iron Riding Stirrups

Item Details

Description

Western Europe, Medieval to Post Medieval Period, ca. 11th to 16th century CE. A group of 4 stirrups - a matched pair and 2 single stirrups - that are all wrought iron. The matched pair have broad foot tread plate set upon a triangular frame, the upper tip surmounted by a bulbous finial and a rectangle suspension loop set perpendicular to the rest of the stirrup. The others have a more rounded form - one with a pear shape and flat foot tread plate, and the other is circular with a rectangular suspension perforation through the center apex - this form likely from the post Medieval era. A rich layer of a dark patina coats the surface of all four. Stirrups stabilized riders and gave them more balance, helping them remain in the saddle while riding. Size (triangular stirrups): 5" L x 2.25" W x 7.5" H (12.7 cm x 5.7 cm x 19 cm)

Provenance: ex-Estate of Eldert Bontekoe, Pegasi Numismatics, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, acquired before 2000
