The “Amy Saddle”!
This lovely saddle recently winged its way to USA! It was made for our customer, Amy and we just had to call it the "Amy saddle"! Amy sent us a photo of a saddle she had seen and asked if we could create a similar effect on a Suzannah. It is difficult to convey how...

A Breakthrough in Saddle Design for the XXX Wide

Slipping back….badly!
K**** from Nottinghamshire rang us on her way back from a show. Her coloured horse is “all shoulder” and very flat backed and her new saddle which had been fitted and made for her (not by us) had slipped back so badly and rolled about so much that she fell off. She...
