A bespoke brooch for the rider, crafted in gold, sterling silver, or platinum, available either plain or set with precious or semi-precious gemstones according to the rider’s design. Intended solely as a discreet decorative accent, it is worn on the browband or cheekpiece and secured by a purpose-built clasp to prevent loss during competition. Each piece is hallmarked by the Goldsmiths’ Company Assay Office (London). The brooch is low-profile and does not alter the bridle’s fit, interfere with the horse, or affect the conduct of dressage or show-jumping.
Could you advise the permitted and recommended position for attaching a bespoke decorative brooch to the bridle, specifically, whether placement on the browband or cheekpiece is acceptable?
Are there any maximum dimensions or weight limits for such a brooch (including height/protrusion from the bridle)?
If the brooch is integrated as a fixed component of the browband or cheekpiece, would this be permitted under the FEI Dressage Rules?
Please confirm which design and attachment features would be compliant and would not attract penalties for the rider at international dressage events.
