Antique Early 1900s US Cavalry Saddle Bag

Antique early 1900s WWI era US Cavalry saddle bag

This rugged leather saddle bag was issued by the U.S. military for use by cavalry troops It was originally part of a matching pair, designed to hang on either side of a horse’s saddle.

Beyond its historic significance, this piece would make a remarkable addition to any WWI or military collection. It could also be repurposed for practical or decorative use — for example, mounted on a vintage motorcycle or transformed into a unique daily handbag by adding a shoulder strap.

Even after more than a century, the bag remains in good vintage condition. The leather has developed a rich patina over the years but remains flexible and strong. It has been carefully cleaned and treated with leather grease for preservation.
