This past weekend I met Loren & Lisa Skyhorse from Durango, Colorado. Really interesting and talented people.  They were exhibiting some of their custom saddles at the Manitou Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  WOW WOW WOW.  These aren’t just nice saddles but high end artistic works of art.  Check out the website to see some of their work.

In their own words:

A Skyhorse saddle is a singular work of art, created specifically for horse and rider by master saddlemakers Lisa and Loren Skyhorse. The finest materials, traditional craftsmanship, uncompromising dedication to detail and quality: these are the hallmarks of a Skyhorse saddle. Their expertise is unmatched after forty years full time; producing over a thousand saddles and hundreds of other exquisite pieces entirely by their own four hands!

Each is a masterpiece in leather, distinctively designed and exquisitely crafted to meet your individual needs. All of our saddles are handmade and built to the customer’s specifications; featuring hand made wooden trees, hand carved groundseats, individually created art including brands and logos, multiple choices of color, finishes, and exotic leathers. All including the masterful hand carving and artwork by Lisa Skyhorse.

The edges of our saddles are all rubbed to a smooth patina, or trimmed with Loren Skyhorse’s famous edge braid  in either kangaroo leather lace or our exclusive fine silver lace. Our remarkable silver braiding is a Skyhorse saddle company trademark and is unique throughout the industry.
