Global ralph lauren online shop horse culture A friend of mine, somi roy, www.scrivolare.it has been supporting the protection of the manipuri pony in india.This breed is famous for being the original polo pony, but has been declining in numbers.Recently somi sent some good news about the status of the ponies.With his permission, here are excerpts from his email: State government of manipur has agreed to establish a natural preservewill rise from the perilous less than 1000 that it has dwindled toi am thrilled to have been a part of a new book, just launched today.The better deal:Practical horsemanship training for you and your horse was co written with horsewoman margaret beeman.We spent a year working on this project, setting out margaret approach to horsemanship.Margaret focuses on the the need to understand the nature of the horse and the herd rules, and then offers a detailed look at what the person needs to learn about their own body language and emotions in order to communicate effectively with the horse.The second part of the book offers a series of ten exercises on the ground which can be used to evaluate and work through problems at all levels, including problems under saddle.She has used her approach to help students who are regional, national and international competitors, as well as helping pleasure riders and drivers.The book is thoroughly illustrated with photos. I spent four years training with margaret, and it made a huge difference in my horsemanship, allowing me to get over my anxieties and try new things i never would have dared before, from hunter pacing and fox hunting to starting my own young horse. Read more about the book and find out how to order here. A reader sent me some pictures of a saddle blanket she has(See end of post for photos), and wondered if I could help her figure out where it is from.I asked a couple friends who know a bit about saddle blankets, and we hazarded a few guesses(Below)But we didn know for sure.Do you know? Our ralph lauren italia shop guesses: It definitely not native american, and it doesn resemble any we seen from ralph lauren online africa(Such as ethiopian or morroccan). The shape, with the pointed ends, is similar to some english cavalry saddle pads, and this might suggest it was made in an area where english influence was polo ralph lauren italia felt, such as india. However, it also looks like the black outer area and zig zag border are a newer and different material than the central portion, which appears to be old woven wool. It has a slot which is typical of saddle blankets that are laid over the top of a high pommeled or high cantled wooden saddle frame, which is common in many regions of the world. The geometric designs and floral motif are similar to some found in central asia, such as kazakhstan or uzbekistan, but again the shape is unusual for those regions and i have not seen any very similar. Do any readers have ideas?If you have seen something similar please let us know!If possible include a link to an online image or webpage in your comment so we can take a look and compare.
