Only used and cleaned horseshoes are used - not new! That means each cross is one of a kind and contains a history within it of the horses that wore each shoe in every scuff and imperfection. These shoes are from a local farrier and come from horses at various farms in West Alabama. All parts are welded together. Approximate dimensions: 15.5" x 10" x 0.5" however each cross varies slightly in dimensions. NOTE: This piece is finished with a clear coat to help prevent rust. NOTE: This is handmade to order and therefore each cross is entirely unique and may differ slightly from the pictures above. Handmade in Alabama
