gmace99 Report post Posted March 20, 2015 This is two saddles I made the side saddle was one I made for the Master Saddler competition in London. I won a premium award for it. The other saddle is a English style jump saddle. I made that just to make a saddle that looked different from others on the market. I am lucky enough to have a job that can double up as a hobby. If any of you guys want to see lots of pictures of a General purpose saddle getting made you can find them on my shops Facebook page under the pictures section. look up Dosthill Saddlery Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grey Drakkon Report post Posted March 20, 2015 The sense of avarice I had when looking at that first saddle surprised me. Especially since I have never wanted to ride side saddle. Or even have a horse. I think I'd have a stroke if i got my hands on that saddle anyway. It's simply gorgeous! The colors on the jumping saddle are lovely, especially how the colors contrast.

leatherwytch Report post Posted March 20, 2015 Those are amazing saddles. The English Saddle to me is the Ferrari of saddles, so comfortable. The side saddle I would have loved to try in my younger days. I hear riding side saddle is quite dangerous. Those saddles are stunning, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
