Antique early 1900s calvary saddle bags
These rugged saddle bags were issued to the cavalry and might be used in the First World War. They are a fine example of early 20th century craftsmanship and are made from thick, durable saddle leather.
Originally worn on either side of a saddle, they can still be used for riding today. They would also make a striking addition to a classic motorcycle.
After more than a century, the bags remain in good condition and show signs of age and use. Over time, they have developed a rich patina that adds to their character. Despite their age, the leather remains strong and sturdy.

Antique 30s mountain boots
These leather mountain boots were made in the French Alps in the 1930s. They feature studded soles, originally designed to provide grip in mountainous terrain and suitable for early mountaineering use.
Today, they make a striking decorative piece and would be a perfect addition to a rustic interior, cabin, lodge, or store display.
After nearly a century, the boots are in worn condition. Over time, they have developed a rich patina that only adds to their character and charm. Due to their age and stiffness, I do not recommend wearing them; they are best suited for decorative purposes only. Please note that two lace hooks are missing on the top of the left boot.

Vintage 30s leather hunting bag
This French made hunting bag dates back to the 1930s and was traditionally used by hunters to carry small game and cartridges. It features multiple compartments, a netted section for transporting rabbits or birds, and an adjustable leather shoulder strap. The brown leather—with its subtle crocodile-style pattern, gives the bag a classic and rugged appearance.
It would also make a striking decorative piece, especially in a cabin, lodge, or hunting-themed interior.
After nearly a century, the bag is in used condition and shows signs of wear. Over the years, it has developed a beautiful patina that adds to its charm, though the leather has become fragile with age. The net originally used for carrying game is torn in several places.
Due to its delicate condition, I would not recommend using the bag for practical purposes.
