This 3-Piece set was a collaboration with silversmith, Charlie Barnett, of Magrath, AB.

The edges of the hitched pieces are cross-hitched in blue and black. Crown Piece: Contains 17"L X 1"W of hitched horsehair completed with high-quality leather. The leather ends are accented on either side with a 3-piece, hand-engraved sterling silver set - buckle, keepers and tips. The edges of the hitched pieces are cross-hitched in blue and black. Browband: Contains 11"L X 1"W hitched horsehair completed with high-quality leather ends, which taper to 3/4"W.

The hitched horsehair inserts are each 16"L X 3/4"W. The pattern of blue, red, yellow and burgundy matches the pattern on the throatlatch. The edges of the hitched pieces are cross-hitched in blue and black. The bit connection ends measure 3/4"W flaring to 1 1/2", then tapering again to 3/4". Located in the center of each flared piece is a hand-engraved, sterling silver 7/8" concho attached with a Chicago screw. Breastcollar: The chest sections are made with two 14" long X 1 1/2" wide hitched pieces finished with high-quality leather. These pieces are attached using nickel D-rings to adjustable high-quality leather tugs. The two tugs taper to 3/4"width and each is accented by a hand-engraved 3-piece sterling silver buckle set - buckle, keeper and tip. The 3/4" width center strap is also made of high-quality leather. The strap is adjustable using a nickel buckle and attaches to the saddle cinch D-ring using a nickel snap. The breastcollar is highlighted with a hand-engraved 3 1/4" circumference sterling silver concho in the center of the chest sections. The concho is securely attached on three sides and fully backed by leather. The pattern of blue, red, yellow and burgundy matches the pattern on the headstall pieces - browband, crown and cheek pieces. The edges of the hitched pieces are cross-hitched with blue/black.
