I am helping a friend clear out her kit and one of the Bridles has an imprinted stamp on it. It looks like sbs maybe, in an oval, landscape. Any suggestions please? I'd guess sensible English quality, not silly money type. Probably several years old, but I'd bet on it being a solid recognisable make. Bridle has silver squared off keeper effects on the buckles.

Knew the HHO collective would solve it!
Better turn the browband round before I sell it for her ??
Brilliant, thank you.

I reckon the brow band is upside down and it’s a FSS (Free Spirit Saddlery). They sell a lot on eBay. I have one of their bridles, it’s nice but not pricey.

That was pretty smart, little_critter. I was trying to read that last letter which looked like a pound sign, but it never occurred to me it might be upside-down.
:D

Ha, it never occurred to me that my friend, who is so meticulous, might have put it on upside-down. But she has cataracts which I didn't account for.
