OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European UnionThe Imperial Atelier commission is the top of our craft: a saddle built from a plaster-accurate template of one horse, for one rider, by one saddler, from first measurement to final polish.Only the tightest, cleanest sections of each hide meet our standard; the rest is set aside. What remains is leather with a dense, silky hand that holds its shape in work yet softens beautifully to the touch — the signature of slow European tanning and patient handwork.Design & Craftsmanship V-system billets in English bridle butt for an even, stable girthing line Full-grain Tuscan calfskin seat and flaps with English bridle-leather skirts Each hide vegetable-tanned for six weeks by a single family tannery Hand-sewn seat with no visible machine work anywhere on the saddle Delivered personally by the saddler who built it, with a signed build record Stainless-steel stirrup bars, recessed and hand-polished Edges skived, folded and edge-painted by hand — no raw cuts anywhere on the saddle Specifications Programme Full bespoke — Atelier Edition Tree Bespoke geometry, adjustable, 10-year warranty Panels Hand-flocked to plaster template Leather Client's choice incl. rare hides Fittings Three at your yard, EU-wide Monogram Hand-set, included Weight ≈ 7.0 kg kg Made in European Union — OLVENIQ atelier Lead time 10–14 weeks, fully bespoke CareClean with a glycerine saddle soap as needed and condition sparingly — quality leather prefers little and often.
