FIDELIO

The Fidelio is our fabulous new model, featuring:

  • Deep & soft seat
  • Billeting system with optional front point keeper
  • Herm Sprenger stirrup bars
  • Selected, best quality leather

The Fidelio is a comfortable, beautiful saddle at an amazing price. We invite you to try it--you won't believe what we are offering! If we don't have the seat/tree you need in stock, we can order it for you. Seat sizes 17"-19", with trees from 32 to 42 cm.

 
 


ENCORE

The Encore is the saddle that just "disappears under you." It's a saddle that gives great freedom to the rider.

The Encore is available in: 17.5",18", 19" and now 20" seat in a wide variety of tree widths: 32, 34, 35, 36, 37 and 38 cm!!

The Encore is elegant, exotic, and a delight! This is just a great saddle for the conventional dressage rider with an eye for style, for the close contact dressage enthusiast and a good choice for trail riders too, in my opinion. Its features are:

  • Made with high quality smooth leather on the flaps, nice, flexible and easy to break in.
  • Smooth knee pads (see suede pads in Trail category)
  • Black nubuck leather seat for superior stability and grip
  • Removeable knee blocks for those who want the closest contact
The saddle is designed so that when you remove the block, another piece of shaped leather covers the velcro area completely, keeping it free of horsehair, and the dust seat which is just a little flatter than the Aria seat, making the saddle somewhat less restrictive.

As with other Duetts, you will feel immediately comfortable and at home with the Encore.

LARGO

The Largo is built on a tree similar to the tree of the Aria, with a deep seat and a semi-cutback in the pommel. Please note: the Aria and Largo models fit small due to the cutback.

This saddle is currently available in a few 17" or 17.5" seats, in limited widths, in 18" and 19" seats in 34, 36, 38 and 40 cm widths, and in 20" in 34, 36 and 38 cm.

The Largo is available in the very widest tree widths: 36, 38 and 40 cm. 42 cm saddles are available by special order.

It is characterized by:

  • smooth bridle leather.
  • smooth knee pads or nubuck.
  • black nubuck leather seat for superior grip
  • pronounced knee blocks (see detail view)
  • billeting system with two billets attached to the saddle tree in three locations is balanced and designed to stabilize the saddle; it is the same as the billeting system for the Encore saddle and similar to that of the Fidelio.
  • cutback pommel and very deep, comfortable, well padded seat
  • spacious gullet: about four fingers wide at the center of the tree
  • wool flocked panels which conform to the body of the horse and are adjustable as your horse changes shape
  • Keepers on the bottom of the upper flap allow billets to be threaded through, which helps pull the flaps tight to the horse.
  • Pretty, soft gray piping around the seat--subtle, but elegant!
  • Available in 36 cm (extra wide), 38 cm (extra, extra wide) and 40 cm (super wide) trees, as well as 42 cm (humongous!--by special order)
  • seats 17.5, 18 and 19
  • Coming in November: a few saddles will be available in 20" seats.
