Pair of Stirrups

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A pair of gold stirrups, titled "Pair of Stirrups", by the artist unknown. The stirrup on the left is empty and U-shaped with a handle on top. The stirrup on the right is more ornate, featuring a handle on top and adorned with medallions, circles, and etched lines. Both stirrups display a gold color with a darker patina. The right stirrup shows a starburst design and additional etched details on its interior. The background is a gray gradient transitioning from light to dark.
