Through extensive research and her vast knowledge of equine anatomy and rider biomechanics, Victoria has developed top-end custom saddles through the VH Signature Collection and carefully selected a range of individualised and off-the-shelf models crafted by British master saddlers, to deliver the very best in saddlery to Australian horse riders.
Horses are Victoria’s life-long passion. She is dedicated to finding the perfect saddle for every Australian rider without comprising the comfort, freedom of movement or overall well-being of their horse.
