"A rider who cannot command his mount with subtle heel work has no business in the stirrups on campaign." Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge
Cast through the ancient lost-wax technique, these Norman prick spurs honour the traditional equestrian arts of centuries past. Each spur is poured from a careful alloy of pure copper and tin, producing solid bronze that will endure hard service while resisting the rigours of the trail. The metal exhibits an authentic finish, fit for display in a collector's cabinet or strapping directly over your riding boots for a reenactment encampment.
Measuring 12.8 by 7 centimetres, the profile reflects the classic medieval prick form, providing clean guidance and rhythm when communicating with your steed. Despite their sturdy metal construction, they weigh a mere 46 grams, ensuring necessary riding stability without encumbering your foot or causing fatigue during long hours in the saddle.
To mount them securely, each piece incorporates a traditional tying structure fashioned from genuine leather. Thread and bind the leather ties snugly around the heel counter and instep of your riding boots. A tight, proper knot ensures the bronze prick remains true against the horse's flank, eliminating unwanted slack stride after stride. Whether you are riding into competitive historical events or outfitting your equestrian display, these cast bronze spurs bring honest artisan craftsmanship to your gear.
