Sometimes you do not need a loud sparkle, but a bridle that stands out softly and still has character.
Violet Prairie has that warm western base of antique chestnut leather, but the purple, lilac and copper accents give it something special right away. Luxurious, feminine and still truly AR cowboy. Not sweet, but a one of a kind set with expression.
This bridle is floral tooled and customized by ARhorsetack with handmade earjewels, hand embellished conchos and carefully chosen natural stones. The combination of angelite, tiger eye, jade and hematite gives the earjewel that rich mix of soft shades, deep purple accents and warm metallic details.
It is the kind of bridle you pick up while tacking up and instantly feel that it does something. Your horse is standing ready, your tack is in your hands and even before you get in the saddle, you can already see that the whole combination gets more presence.
Not standard. Not too sweet. But eye catching in a calm, luxury way.
✦ Premium leather with calf leather backing
Soft, strong and comfortable. Made to stay beautiful, even with intensive use.
✦ Handmade earjewels with natural stones
Handmade on a strong base that does not break. Finished with angelite, tiger eye, jade and hematite.
✦ Antique chestnut floral tooling
Warm chestnut leather with a rich western expression and beautiful depth in the floral pattern.
✦ Warm copper details
The copper coloured accents give the bridle warmth and make the purple and lilac shades stand out even more.
✦ Purple and lilac rhinestones
Soft sparkle details that add luxury without becoming overdone.
✦ Lux glass rhinestones and high quality finishing
No plastic look, but clear sparkle and a deep shine that keeps speaking.
✦ One of a kind
There is only one.
✦ Size Quarter / Cob
The difference is in the details.
In the warm antique chestnut leather. In the soft purple shine of the natural stones. In the copper accents that give the whole look strength. In that good feeling when you get in the saddle and feel that your whole combination is right.
Violet Prairie is made for riders who love western tack with character, but do not always want the boldest look. Soft in colour, strong in expression and even more beautiful in real life than in the photos.
Natural stones. Chosen with care. The rest? That’s something you feel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, all ear jewelry contains natural stones, carefully selected for their subtle effect. The stones used are listed for each headband. Want to know more? See Natural Stones. In the main menu you can read the detailed explanation.
Yes, that's certainly possible. Simply add a throat latch to your shopping cart, which you'll find under "Accessories" in the bridle menu. Or clickhere
These bridles come with a handy adapter that allows you to easily attach your throat latch to the desired bridle.
This is possible with both the premium and basic bridles.
If you ride with a snaffle bit, a bit without shanks, it's best to choose a throatlatch for bridle stability.
If you ride with a shank bit, you don't need a throat latch.

A good Western bridle sits securely in place and is finished with materials that are gentle on sensitive horse skin. That's why I always use genuine calf leather padding: soft, breathable, durable, and natural.
Where cheap western bridles often use synthetic padding (which becomes brittle or sticky), I choose natural materials that retain their shape and comfort — even after intensive use or sweating.
Of course!
✦ The earjewels are made of sturdy materials that will last for years.
✦ The bridle is made of premium oil-dyed leather that retains its beauty even with heavy use.
✦ Rhinestones made of luxurious glass, not cheap plastic, and attached with super strong adhesive.
Natural stone is naturally finer in texture than leather. Think of it as a beautiful Western ornament for your horse: it can withstand a few knocks, but remains at its finest when handled with care.
