The Champs-Élysées Black Patent Leather Snaffle Bridle

Part of the Equestrians In Paris / Versailles 2024 Collection.

The Champs Elysees has been described as the "most beautiful avenue in the whole world"

Early on, the avenue was associated with military parades and victories. The most famous of these is probably the parade of victorious Free French Forces and American allied forces in 1944, after the Liberation of Paris.

Today, the Champs-Élysées retains its military connotation as the site of the annual July 14^th (Bastille Day) military parade but is also home to the most esteemed and innovative fashion houses, fine dining and entertainment. 

The Champs-Élysées snaffle is a stunningly elegant combination of black Italian patent leather, metallic silver piping, metallic silver foiled floral pattern leather on the browband and metallic grays.

The noseband is a classic, anatomical design in black patent with metallic silver piping.  The browband channel is made in metallic silver foiled floral pattern leather with metallic silver piping, providing an elegant contrast to the noseband.

The browband design showcases an alternating pattern of Princess-cut Austrian Crystals in Siam Red with limited edition coating and Silver Night alternating with black patina Austrian chaton crystals, reflecting the elegance, style and innovation the avenue symbolises.

• Black Italian Flat Leather
