  • Heather Moreton Abounader Consignment Description
    Heather Moreton Abounader consignment description: The first part of this set is a hand-woven "Native" Arabian Halter. This halter took Heather two solid weeks to make. The most difficult part was weaving the headstall, and therefore that is the part that took the longest. The throatlatch and the lead rope are hand braided, and each tassel was hand tied. The "flowers" on the side of the halters are hand made using pearl sculpey and have a leather backing on them. The "sharks teeth" on the noseband were hand made out of "Yellow Silver Solder" using a dremel. This halter fits the Breyer Proud Arabian Mare AND the Stone Arabian. Surprise! Heather decided to add a second component, an Arabian show halter, to her consignment. This show halter will fit the Breyer Proud Arabian Mare as well as similar sized resins (for example Aisha) and plastics. It has a roller buckle at the poll and is adjustable. All of the beads, jump rings and conchos on this halter are real silver and have been coated to retard tarnishing. Heather’s Arabian Show halters have won several championships and top tens at NAN's in past years. Heather is a returning consignor to the NAN Auction and we are grateful for her continued support. Heather does not take orders, so this is the ONLY way you can get her tack! Tom Bainbridge consignment description: Thomas Bainbridge proudly presents “Valentino", a traditional scale cantering Warmblood stallion. He was sculpted by Brigitte Eberl as an exclusive resin for Thomas Bainbridge. The resin edition will be 68 (8 retained by sculpting artist), with this handsome chap being #1/60 in the edition.

  • Read Book Through England on a Side-Saddle Ebook, Epub
    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

  • Equipment Directions for Trotting Races in Sweden
    EQUIPMENT DIRECTIONS FOR TROTTING RACES IN SWEDEN Valid from January 18, 2018 These directions are issued by The Swedish Trotting Association. Contact: Svensk Travsport 161 89 Stockholm, Sweden. Phone: +46 8 627 21 20 E-mail: kundtjanst@travsport.se 2 Table of content Introduction 4 Bridles and cheek pieces 5 Bits 8 Overcheck and overcheck bits 11 The harness 13 Protective gear 13 Additional equipment 14 Racing under saddle 16 The racing bike 18 The racing authorities in the Nordic countries – Denmark, Finland, Nor- way and Sweden – have jointly listed the pieces of equipment permitted for use during trotting races in these four countries. Equipment of new design has to be approved by Animal Welfare Depart- ment of The Swedish Trotting Association. No exceptions will be granted. 3 Introduction The Swedish legislation on animal welfare is among the world’s strictest. Obviously, this has implications for the trotting industry – not least when it comes to the equipment used during racing and training. Since the arrival of 2018, trainers using equipment prohibited by the racing regulations will face increasingly harsh consequences – ranging from heavy fines to exclusion of individual horses from participation in a specific race. The ultimate responsibility for the equipment of a horse always rests on the trainer. In order to prevent the risk for incidents causing trouble and frustration among visiting trainers, we have produced this brief manual on equipment. Below, you will find general guidelines for the design and adjustment of equipment used during racing and training. The following sections offer brief descriptions of equipment details that are permitted.

  • The Culture of Materials and Leather Objects in Eighteenth-Century England
    The Culture of Materials and Leather Objects in Eighteenth-Century England Thomas Benjamin Sykes Rusbridge Department of History A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for School of History and Cultures the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY March 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This study of leather examines material culture in England, c.1670-1800. Following raw hide to leather, leather to object, and object to possessed commodity, this thesis traces the production, retail, and consumption of three representative leather objects: saddles, chairs and drinking vessels. The analysis of these three objects is principally informed by materials, and draws on inventories, advertisements, literary and technical texts, visual sources and ephemera, and other object types with which they shared consumption contexts, practices of making or decoration. This thesis argues, first, that the meanings consumers derived from materials, which informed their responses to objects, were created across the full life-cycle of a material: from production to consumption. Second, while leather exhibited principal properties which made it useful across several objects, its meanings and associations played out differently and unevenly across different object types.
