Saddler or harness maker is a trade that creates and repairs horse tack such as saddles, harnesses, and bridles, primarily of leather. It has been found in equestrian cultures around the world since antiquity. An individual artisan may focus on specific gear for riding or driving—and often develops specialties, such as dressage, show jumping, Western riding, or regional styles like Camargue riding.
