ROMAN AND MIDDLE AGES EQUIPMENT

SADDLES

 

This is an example of a Norman saddle constructed on an American Long Distance tree.  The front and rear arches are of leather, for safety in case of an accident. Can be made in various sizes.   

 

Price from £550, dependant upon the amount of embellishment required, although for this period saddles were relatively simple.

     
These pictures show medieval Saddles made on a Universal Pattern Army Saddle Tree, very strong and very safe.  The pommel and cantle can be designed as required, and the depth of the flap can be varied to suit the horse.

Price from £550 dependent upon embellishments
