Saddle tree 'Exclusive' with integrated gullet plate

I have an 18' Courbette Luxor 'Felsbach' saddle that I'd like to sell. Prospective buyers have been asking me the year it was made, and I have no clue (I bought it second-hand.) Some of its features are: The leather overall is textured rather than smooth Fairly deep seat Plain flap Shaped, slightly-larger-than-pencil knee rolls Nailheads on the pommel appear to be German silver (not chrome. Advanced Design, Traditional Quality! Resisting the trend toward cheaper production methods using synthetic panels and synthetic trees, saddles made by County Saddlery continue to be painstakingly handmade on our laminated beechwood trees, covered in the worlds finest leather and flocked with pure wool to maximize your horses' comfort and fit. Re the older saddle on consignment - if you can read the serial number, you can probably contact County and find out how old it is. They have contact info on their website County saddles are all made in England, so that is not a particular selling point of one County vs.

This advancement in the field of saddle trees increases safety as well as riding comfort particularly in the seat region.

Gullet plate and stirrup bar form a unification made of high-quality steel which is inset in the upper area of the saddle tree. This system exclusively
patented by Kieffer, leads the stirrup bar closer to the saddle tree – the result is a narrower pommel and more seating comfort in the front part of the saddle.

The saddle number is a 6-digit number. You find it embossed on the saddle flap (see photo). Note: If the saddle number is lower than 212 041 the saddle was produced before 1986. Data for that period has not been digitized yet. Saddle numbers 018 000 to 070 000 are an exception. They indicate that the saddle has a synthetic saddle tree. Wintec is the Worlds No. 1 Synthetic Saddle Brand offering World-leading innovations for horse and rider comfort in easy-care, weatherproof and durable saddles for every discipline, including Dressage, Jump, All Purpose, Eventing, Stock and Endurance.

With its integrated gullet plate, the saddle tree model 'Exclusive' greatly facilitates adjustment of the saddle tree to the horseback – for example when purchasing a new saddle or as required due to muscular or nutritional changes of the animal. In order to fit the saddle tree, the saddle is simply mounted onto the Kieffer alteration bench and adjusted by cold processing to make it either narrower or wider.

Another advantage of this construction is that an escape of the stirrup bar is in actual fact impossible.

The gullet plate is located above and not below the saddle tree as is usual, consequently sharp corners can herewith be avoided. In the case of a saddle tree with a narrow set fitting for a horse with a slim body shape, the gullet plate does not deform in a V-shape but remains in a rounded shape to prevent jamming the withers.

Of particular importance is the fact, that because of the seamless connection of gullet plate and stirrup bar the pressure caused by mounting the horse is distributed evenly over the whole saddle tree – this prevents the saddle tree from deforming. A deforming of the saddle tree, occurs in many saddles over a long time period and may result in a tilting of the rider´s seat which of course would have negative consequences for the rider and the horse.
