cavesson PORTUGUESA

Description

Baroque cavesson Portuguese style

High-quality workmanship cavesson in Portuguese-baroque look. The rounded, firm nose iron without joints is padded, covered with leather and provides a stable hold with the possibility of precise action. In combination with the three swivelling rings, the cavesson is therefore ideal for lunging and for the bitless in-hand work . Additional, unpleasant shearing forces are avoided because the nose iron has no joints. The jaw strap can be moved on the cheek strap for individual adjustment and prevents the cheek strap from slipping near the eyes.

Since the cavessons in Portugal are traditionally buckled a little lower on the horse's nose than, for example, the Spanish serretas, the nose iron of the cavesson Portuguesa has a rather narrow fit.

Handmade in Spain. Made of black vegetable tanned cowhide with stainless steel fittings and silver cortesia buckles.

Size & Fit of cavesson PORTUGUESA

The cavesson is made in the Iberian one size fits all - perfect for the long and narrow heads of the Iberian breeds, such as PRE, Andalusian horse or Lusitano. Due to the large adjustment range, in our experience it fits most horses with Cob to Full heads. The length of all straps can be found in our size guide (see above).

cavesson combine with bit

You want to use bit together with cavesson ? We recommend the additional use of a semi bridle with which the bit is simply buckled over the cavesson . This way you can gently get your young horse used to the bit . In addition, the semi bridle together with the reins and bit can also be easily removed during the training session, e.g. if you want to warm up your horse with manual work at bit and then lunge with cavesson only.

In this video we show you how to do it. You can also find the right reins, semi bridles & crownpiece with cheekpiece at Picadera.
