Grandeur Tomentum Baroque Fellsattel, pressure-distributing lambskin bareback pad in Baroque style.
The Grandeur Tomentum Baroque bareback pad, like the other Grandeur Tomentum Fellsattels, features a chamber construction with multiple inserts for good spinal freedom and pressure distribution.

Maintenance and use of lambskin bareback pad:
To protect your bareback pad from dirt, it is advisable to use a pad under the bareback pad. Or preferably even a pad with inserts if your horse has a protruding spine or if you want to use the bareback pad intensively. The bottom of the bareback pad can hardly be washed, so this is highly recommended. You can brush and vacuum it to remove dust. The lambskin seat is detachable and can be washed with lambskin detergent, centrifuged up to 400 times, and slowly dried.
