Product code: Cowboy Horseshoe buying Art
This is western tramp art or horseshoe art. It is two cowboys buying shaking hands in greeting. They both have on cowboy hats and one has his lasso. A lasso is the loop of rope that cowboys use to catch cattle. To be a successful cowboy or cowgirl, you have to learn to throw a lasso while riding a galloping horse. ... Lasso was coined in the U.S. around 1807, from the Spanish lazo, and its Latin root laqueum, both meaning "noose" or "snare." This sculpture is made from old used horseshoes with a few of the nails still in the shoes. It does have some rust evenly so does show some age. The lasso is loose and can be moved around from one side to the other as you prefer.
