Aurelius Competition Reins

OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union

Contact begins in the hand; the Aurelius gives it the texture it deserves — hand-rolled English leather, precise stops, and stitching measured in stitches per inch, not per minute.

The leather is selected hide by hide from a single family-run tannery in Tuscany, vegetable-tanned over six weeks and finished by hand until it develops the deep, quiet lustre that no accelerated process can imitate. Our saddlers cut every panel along the natural grain, so the piece breaks in gracefully and grows more beautiful with each season of use.

Design & Craftsmanship

• Buckle guards protecting the leather at every adjustment point
• Anatomically curved headpiece relieving poll pressure with a soft padded contour
• Stitched in waxed linen at eight stitches to the inch — no rivets anywhere
• Old-gold or matte stainless fittings, individually cast and polished

Care

Clean with a glycerine saddle soap as needed and condition sparingly — quality leather prefers little and often. Avoid oils in excess, which soften structure.

Questions, Answered

How should I store it?
On a shaped hook or rack in a ventilated tack room, away from direct heat. The supplied cotton bag protects the finish in transport.
