artwork details

Lozano crafted the nose button of this bosal using a twisted pattern style, known by seamen as “crowning,” which was common on 19th century California ranches. The bosal body he created using a 14-strand Trenza Patria flat braid, while the heel button — which features the maker’s stamp “P. LOZANO” — boasts fanciful braid work of Lozano’s own creation. A Hermann Oak leather hanger is included.
