Rrequest information
our history
An idea born in a saddle, built by hand.
After years in the saddle between show jumping, eventing and endurance,
Robert Vurchio chose to shape a saddle capable of truly accompanying horse
and rider over long distances. His training, developed alongside master saddler Augusto del Vecchio, transformed his field experience into a precise artisanal gesture: each step was born from listening to the horse's back, the rider's posture, and the road ahead.
Made in Italy
The measure of gesture, the quality of matter.
Each saddle takes shape in our laboratory with Italian materials, expert hands and attention to what is not seen — but felt, kilometer after kilometer.
