Wilhelmina Jumping Saddle
Made to order — atelier lead time appliesTax included where applicable. Insured delivery arranged by your concierge.
OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union
The Wilhelmina is a close-contact saddle in the classical sense: minimal bulk, maximal feel, and craftsmanship that survives water combinations and airport handlers alike.
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
- Balance point calibrated on a measuring bench before dispatch
- Reinforced knee pads hidden beneath the flap for five-star durability
- Covered calf-leather blocks, repositionable via concealed hook-and-loop plates
- Hand-stitched in our European atelier — eight stitches to the inch in waxed linen thread
- Wool-flocked panels shaped on the bench, allowing millimetre-precise fitting and future adjustment
- Seamless deep seat construction with no pressure ridges under the rider
- Signature old-gold nameplate, individually numbered

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".
What is the delivery time?
