OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union
The Salzburg was drawn around a single image: the rider folded quietly over a 1.50 m oxer, saddle invisible beneath them. Forward-cut, close and fast, it is jumping equipment reduced to what matters in the air.
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.

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.
Can I order a different leather colour or custom details?
Certainly. Alternative leathers, stitching colours, welting and monogramming are available through our bespoke programme at no change to the lead time in most cases.
