Description
 


This utterly gorgeous saddle was custom built to my specifications within the past six years.   I had it made to fit my mega-wide Fjord mare on an eight inch draft tree.   Measurement information can be seen in the photos.  It rides level and is nicely stable on my mare.   The seat is supportive and very comfortable.   This saddle comes with a full selection of fittings, including an unused crupper, a full set of girths, a separate padded seat, and an all-leather underpad that is corner tooled to match.  This is an OFFSIDE saddle, which means that the rider's legs will be on the right side of the horse when mounted.   I had it made to accommodate nerve damage in my left  leg.  It does not come with a stirrup.   The stirrup dee is closed which means a safety iron or stirrup will be necessary.   I used one of a pair of "footfree" irons when I rode it.   It did come with a slipper stirrup, but the stirrup was designed for a standard sidesaddle and fits a left foot.  OFFSIDE saddles are RARE!  Offside sidesaddles on draft trees are super hard to come by.   If you have one made it will cost $5K or more, and will take six months or so.   This is your chance to own a fabulous saddle without the full price and the manufacturing delay.  I am happy to try to answer any questions you may have about my saddle.   It is listed elsewhere, thus may become unavailable, so if you are interested, my advice is to kact fast!
