SILVER SADDLES from Dusty Johnson, Pleasant Valley Saddle Shop

Most of the Parade Saddles that I sell were created by famous makers Ted Flowers and Bruce Lovins. They made saddles, 50 years ago, using German Silver, Monel, Nickel and Aluminum metals. This was less expensive and more durable than Sterling, but looks the same. I refurbish each rig as completely as possible while maintaining the original parts. These saddles weigh approximately 75 pounds including serapes, breast collar, etc. I buy/sell/refurbish more of these Flowers & Lovins saddles than anyone in the country so call me if you have any questions. Please call me direct at (970)669-1588. (click any picture to see more detail)

I am currently restoring a terrific youth saddle which is quite rare and a real collectible. I also have a set of pony size serapes and a pony size breast collar (both VERY rare) being restored. If you have interest in these items please call me direct at 970-669-1588

The saddles shown below have been SOLD to lucky collectors, however, I regularly obtain parade saddles from private collections. If you are searching for a parade saddle or have one to sell please contact me immediately. All saddles are oiled, tightened and fully polished before delivery. I can ship them safely anywhere in the continental US fully insured and securely packed. (overseas somewhat higher) I often have clients waiting. In the meantime, enjoy looking at the details of these wonderful examples of true Americana from the 1950's .

NOTE: Due to current equipment liability laws ALL saddles sold from my shop are "For Display Only". As with any type of equipment "Ride at your own risk".

Parade Pony Saddle ...... A true pony saddle with a 12" seat ! This little jewel has the nicest carving ever seen on one of these rigs. (click here) The Serapes are only 26" long and the Taps are 13". It has a Breast Collar, Hip Drops and Bridle & Reins. What a cutie!! I am only showing pictures of it for your viewing pleasure. It is definitely NOT FOR SALE (Sorry!). (click on pictures to see larger detail views)
