Bag, Saddle Bags, US Cavalry, Patriotic Beadwork, Vintage, 1207 Color:Brown light orange spinyAn extraordinary piece of Americana. This remarkable piece is a vintage beaded hide saddlebag, boasting time worn leather hand beaded with red, white, and blue embellishments. The bag is stamped "U. S." in reverse along one of the flaps likely because the front stamp is covered by beading possibly indicating government issue for United States cavalry.
