Las Conchas Seashell bit

Las Conchas Seashell bit

from $550.00

The Las Conchas bit is the third in a series of bits I’ve designed inspired by the California coastal Vaquero history. Each cheek piece has a large 3” silver scallop shell concho struck from an original hand carved die I created. Available in your choice of mouthpiece. The mouthpiece shown is an old style hand forged barqueño with hand rolled copper barrels on the braces. It also has a set of 12” antique California rein chains.  There are also a matching set of 2” sterling shell bridle conchos and a set of 1 3/4” sterling shell conchos for spur straps. This is truly a unique and one of a kind set up that you won’t find anywhere else.
