I agree with you - that cantle is just wonderful, and I think the cleaning struck a good balance between tarnish and shine. All in all, a fine job of cleaning and rejuvenation.
Good question. Light color hair is most definitely goat and the tassles I believe are horse hair.

Something else I found most interesting is that each section of the cantle is a little bit different: variations on the theme. Very well thought out artistically.

I am glad you think I did a good job. Thank you.
