Gorgeous, super comfortable, and well-maintained Philipe Fontaine Orleans dressage saddle by Stubben, only about one year old. Sadly no longer fits horse. 17.5 seat (measures true), medium tree. This saddle has a medium wide tree and measures 31cm per Steuben standards. The E-Motion tree is an integrated spring tree and panel system. This unique tree has a narrow twist and a balanced center of gravity and features a low pommel and a semi cut-back head. It provides controlled flexibility and impact absorption. The tree will flex at all points of pressure. A very limited number of tree widths are needed, as the tree points flex in use and adapt to the horse’s conformation. The E-Motion tree is light weight, immune to extreme heat or cold, and retains its shape, and recessed stirrup bars eliminate the bulk of stirrup leather buckles. Company description of the ORLEANS:
"This classic Dressage saddle features doubled leather in jockeys and flaps for a secure grip and rider comfort and has tone-on-tone stitching. Built on our unique spring tree with a deep seat, it has gusseted wool panels and long dressage billets. The Orleans offers close leg contact and a correct sitting position. The riding experience is enhanced by large, tapered thigh blocks." HORSE FIT DESCRIPTION This saddle would fit a medium wide, well muscled A-shape withers without hollows behind the shoulders and has a moderate to level back
