thank you for looking , it takes about 22 hours per set, to make them , most of them go for around $ 450.00 for a nice set of hand made spurs , and I seen a set of Garcia spurs sell for $15000.00 about 10 years ago .

Nice work and artistry. I also don't know about spurs, however can appreciate the craftsmanship. Are they used functionally or for style?

they are used to put power steering on your horse , if used properly they are very functionally , a good trained horse can be handled with just your legs and spurs and not the reins . but all good cowboys want a good flashy pair to wear.
