OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union
The Orion is a close-contact saddle in the classical sense: minimal bulk, maximal feel, and craftsmanship that survives water combinations and airport handlers alike.
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
- Seamless deep seat construction with no pressure ridges under the rider
- Forward-cut flap with calf-leather blocks positioning the leg instantly over fences
- Stainless-steel stirrup bars, recessed and hand-polished
- Signature old-gold nameplate, individually numbered
- Hand-stitched in our European atelier — eight stitches to the inch in waxed linen thread
- Each hide vegetable-tanned for six weeks by a single family tannery

Care
Wipe dust and sweat after each use with a barely damp cloth, then feed the leather monthly with the OLVENIQ Leather Balsam. Keep away from direct heat, allow wet leather to dry naturally, and store on a shaped rack or padded hook. Treated with respect, this piece will serve for decades and acquire a patina unique to your stable.
Questions, Answered
How do I know my seat size?
Your fitter will confirm it, but as guidance: most riders take 17" or 17.5"; longer thigh or a preference for a roomier seat suggests 18".
Can the saddle be fitted to my horse?
Yes.
