Willemsma’s half-scale Western side saddle is built to the design Charles Goodnight commissioned for his wife in 1870. The fine mixed flower carving is complemented by silver trim created by TCAA silversmith Scott Hardy. The saddle is completely hand sewn with European linen thread at ten stitches per inch.
The pocket on the offside — with a silver keeper and tip closer with the TCAA logo, also fabricated by Hardy — was added to keep items that might be needed during a ride.
