We recently had the opportunity to make this very nice roughout saddle for a good cowboy, who is ridding for a grazing association in western Colorado. This saddle is designed for all day use and this cowboy will put it to the test.

Notice the sterling silver cantle concho. All of our silver is custom made here in our shop.

This saddle was ordered for a customer in appreciation for his many years of work on the SWENSON RANCH in Throckmortin, Texas.

Jerry had his choice ..and chose a Will James tree for his saddle. Jerry is a big guy so this saddle was built on a 17" tree, notice the historic ranch brand that was tooled into the fender, it was an honor to build this saddle given to a cowboy who had spent  so much time" horse back "working for a good cow outfit..... 

We would like to thank Jerry for the privilege to build him this one of a kind saddle please feel free to contact us for all you special saddle needs .

We like it when you our "CUSTOMER' comes to us with a special project ..... This saddle is one of three that a gentleman came to us and commissioned our shop to create. It is an honor when we can build something special for you.....

This particular flower that was used in the tooling design on this saddle was chosen for its origination in the country of Peru this saddle will be ridden on a majestic PERUVIAN PASOVINO STALLION hence the name of the flower is THE MARVEL OF PERU. This saddle will compliment both the horse and rider.

It is the goal of a custom shop such as LJ's SADDLERY to create individual works for each and every customer. Please contact us for your special needs.

Sometimes we get the opportunity to build something a little bit out of the ordinary and this past February was our chance. My good friend Terry Evans who lives in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley in California asked me to build him two wonderful Briefcases.

One for his personal use and one for a fundraiser for his camp in the famous group "The Rancheros Vistatores" .The Rancheros Vistadores ride is one of the most famous and prestigious rides in the United States and dates to the early 1900s We hope you can see the beauty and the varied array of flowers used in the tooling design.

Please feel free to call us to order one of these beautiful cases
