Pirouette Atelier Bespoke Saddle
Made to order — atelier lead time appliesTax included where applicable. Insured delivery arranged by your concierge.
OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union
Four visits, three fittings, one saddle. The Pirouette is our full bespoke programme — rare leathers, a hand-sewn seat and a build record signed by the craftsman who made it.
Cut, skived, stitched and edge-painted entirely by hand in our European atelier, this piece uses saddlery techniques measured in hours, not minutes: eight stitches to the inch, linen thread drawn through beeswax, edges sealed and polished until they feel like glass.
Design & Craftsmanship
- Edges skived, folded and edge-painted by hand — no raw cuts anywhere on the saddle
- Client monogram and stable colours worked into welting and cantle piping
- Entirely bespoke: tree, panels, flap length and blocks built to your horse's plaster-accurate template
- Wool-flocked panels shaped on the bench, allowing millimetre-precise fitting and future adjustment
- Adjustable spring-steel tree, fitted and guaranteed for ten years
- Stainless-steel stirrup bars, recessed and hand-polished
- Choice of rare leathers — buffalo calf, Russia calf reissue, or hand-glazed museum calf

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. We offer a full refurbishment service: stitching, flocking and finish can be renewed at our atelier at any point in the piece's life.
Questions, Answered
Is a trial period offered?
We arrange a professional fitting appointment with test rides. Together with our exchange policy on standard specifications, you can be entirely certain before the saddle stays.
What warranty applies?
The tree carries a 10-year warranty, leather and workmanship 5 years, subject to normal care — the longest cover we know of in the industry.
