Description: This unusual vintage South American riding whip came fresh from a Palm Beach estate, whose owners spent a lot of time in Argentina. A metal knob handle has a linked metal wrist strap and it tops a collar adorned with a horse head and horse shoe medallion. Handle and collar measure 3-1/4 x 1-3/8 inches. A crucifix in relief is applied to the hardwood shaft. Attached by a metal ring to the metal tip is a 10-inch braided rawhide thong or lash. The thong appears to be a replacement and actually looks like catgut. Overall length is 16 inches. Functional, but a great conversation piece at the very least.
