Old Horse Tie Hitching Post 2 5/8” Ring Lag Screw Vintage Wrought Iron Barn Rust

A hitching ring was used as a place to tie up horses to a post

• This rustic hitching ring would add a great look to a barn, basement door, or a shed
• It also could be reused as a plant hanging hook or dog tie
• The ring was stretched and pulled by a horse so it isn’t perfectly round
• The eye on the spike shows a nice amout of wear as well
  
• It is nicely textured with rust
• There are some pliers marks from when someone took it out of a post
• It was hand forged by a blacksmith
• You can see the hammer marks and joints in the iron
• I use these on barn doors as a pull handle
• The ring is 2 5/8" in diameter 
• The lag is 1/2” at it’s thickest spot
• The eye lag screw  is 3 5/8" long
