Toccata Hunting Breastplate

OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union

Designed on pressure-mapping studies and finished like jewellery, the Toccata is the breastplate for horses whose saddles must not move and whose shoulders must.

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

• Stitched in waxed linen at eight stitches to the inch — no rivets anywhere
• Five-point anatomical cut spreading pressure across the chest, never the shoulder
• Buckle guards protecting the leather at every adjustment point
• Old-gold or matte stainless fittings, individually cast and polished
• Contoured, tapering noseband padded with memory foam over softest calf lining

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

Does it match other OLVENIQ pieces?
Yes — leathers, dyes and hardware are standardised across the collection, so bridle, breastplate and saddle age together as one set.
