Matched pair of decorative Tibetan horse trappings - with the pile backed by heavy canvas-like material - which would have attached to the rear either side of a saddle and then run back over the horse’s rump where they were then fastened around (under) the tail by the long canvas-like ‘cloth’ and hide straps. At the very top are two flaming or precious jewels, under which seems to be a half-moon with another precious jewel ‘inside’ the half-moon arc. The central design consist of a pair of swastikas (actually, one swastika and one sauwastika, i.e. a reverse facing swastika) above a central floral motif with pale green tendrils on its stalk which emanates from a vase, Made with natural dyes circa the early 1900’s, the size of the pile sections are about 23cm x 7.5cm (approximately 9in x 3in) and the warp and weft is hand spun wool. It is not so easy today to find a genuinely old matched set like this still in quite good, though well used condition. Simply a must-have 'accessory' for anyone collecting Tibetan horse tack.
