Hi Guys,

I answered this one in the Ethno section. I've only ever seen these described as 'Spanish Colonial' or specifically attributed to various south american countries.
If you have a look on the 'bay' and search for 'spanish colonial stirrup' or 'conquistador stirrup' there are always a fair few.
I could be wrong, but I thought that they were used right up to (and probobly into) the 20thC?
