5 people looking at this.
A head turner!! The 'Ariana' is a wow-factor bridle featuring a wide, deep drop browband of gold toned Austrian stellux crystals and patent noseband.
 
The noseband is wide and well-padded and features a crank closure for a comfortable and secure fit. Anatomically shaped, it arcs up to allow space for the bit and is a high-shine patent leather.
 
Handcrafted from butter soft, premium leather, the Ariana pairs beauty with comfort. The monocrown headpiece is gel padded, molding comfortably to the poll. Shaped with space for the ears and clearance for the sensitive nerves over the horse's poll, the headpiece has been designed with comfort at the forefront.
 

 

Features:

  • Vegetable tanned luxury leather
  • Wide crystal browband in gold / champagne tones
  • Gel-padded cavesson crank patent noseband (6cm)
  • Gel-padded single poll strap
  • Noseband and cheek strap adjustable on both sides for the perfect fit
  • Stainless steel fittings
  • Quality stitching and craftsmanship.

Also available in Hanoverian and Double Bridles.

 

Not sure about size?

How do you measure a standard bridle?

Browband: measured from the end of each loop, straight across. Even if the style is curved.

Noseband: measured as a circumference when done up in the middle hole

Headpiece: measured with the cheek pieces attached on the middle hole. Measure from bit, to bit, over the top of the horse's head.

Reins: measured as a single side length from bit to buckle  (don't measure the buckle).

How do you measure an anatomic / micklem style bridle?

To get the perfect fit for your anatomic / micklem style bridle, refer to the below sizing chart, using the diagram. It is recommended that you mark out the measurements with chalk on your horse’s face, so that once you’ve finished your measurements you can see the pattern of the fit, and be sure you have measured correctly.

Our micklem style bridles are fairly standard in sizing.

Measurement 1: measure from 1cm under the horse's cheekbone, all the way over the horse’s poll to the same point on the other side. 

Measurement 2: measure the browband vertically from end of loop, to end of loop (don’t dip the measuring tape for curved browbands).

Measurement 3: run your finger down the bottom point of the protruding cheek bone until you get to the top of the bit. Then measure across your horse’s nose horizontally to the same point on the other side.

Measurement 4: from the outer corner of your horse’s eye, run your finger vertically down your horse’s face and stop when you reach around the middle of the bit ring (you will be an inch or so away from the bit ring). Measure from this point under your horse’s chin to the same point on the other side of its face.

Anatomic / micklem style bridle sizing chart:

Measurements are taken from the middle hole, with 2-3 holes available either side. Therefore you are looking for the sizing that is closest to your measurements – not exactly the same as your measurements.
