Description

This one is slightly different than 001 and 002: Cow tie made of loops of metal, probably steel or iron in two sections united by a large open metal ring (inside diameter 3 3/4 inches) shape cf Omega, with a closed loop at each end. From one end is a 3.5" long metal loop; from the other is a fitting from which hang two chains, one ending with a toggle, the other with a ring. Cow tie is approx. 42 inches long. The two sections are of unequal length, the shorter one being only 19 inches long and ending in a toggle. The other chain (c 22")contains oval links and 4 rings each separated by an oval link. The toggle fits into one of the four rings, or into the loop on the other side..
