Pair of Rowel Spurs

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of rowel spurs. The spurs are made of metal, likely silver or a silver-colored metal, and have a curved shape with a pointed rowel at the end. The rowel is a star-shaped wheel with multiple points. The spurs have a feather design on the side and a rose or flower design near the end. The heel band is flat and has a small hole at the end. The background of the image is a plain gray color. The spurs are placed on a flat surface, with one spur in front of the other.
