Late 19th C. Mexican Iron & Copper Horse Ring Bit

Item Details

Description

Latin America, Mexican, ca. late 19th to mid-20th century CE. A forged iron horse's ring bit comprised of several chains and scrolling cheek plates. The large ring goes around the horse's lower jaw, and the smaller ring goes to the sides attached to the reins. The smaller chains are lip straps that fit under the jaw. The bit has copper roller pieces that spin freely, a popular design for a horse to run its tongue over which has a calming effect. This type of bit is an aggressive piece of tack for controlling horses, especially unruly stallions, originally an Islamic design that became popular in Spain and was brought to the Americas with the Spanish conquistadors. Size: 21" L x 5" W (53.3 cm x 12.7 cm)
