If needed these saddles can be made with custom designed panels to accommodate a horse that might need a little bit different panel because of the shape of the back. These handcrafted saddles are manufactured with the utmost care. There is approximately thirty two hours in creating this saddle.
The size of the Childeric tree cannot be adjusted. Minor adjustments can be made with pure wool felt shims by a Childeric trained saddler.
