Annotation:

They are trapezoidal deer suede lappets covered with red and black cloth and connected by two leather belts. Decorated with a lyre-shaped pattern embroidered with beads. In the top part of each saddle skirt is a slit where the girth straps are passed through. The saddle skirts were put on under the saddle, to make a set of a riding horse festive outfit together with the saddle blanket. Abstract by M.V. Fedorova
