StallSchätze

StallSchätze is a small brand that makes everyday life in the stable easier with smart, practical products. In its own online shop, you’ll find around 35 items – from fly veil clips that keep ear bonnets securely in place to magnetic tags for hoof picks. The Startup offers practical tools for riders who value both function and style. Most products can be personalized, are made from Biothane, and are handcrafted by founder Alina Siemsen in Seevetal, Germany.

So, if you’re looking for something practical and unique that you won’t find anywhere else – and you appreciate loving craftsmanship made in Germany – then StallSchätze is just the right place for you.

Gravity-B

The weighted blanket from startup Gravity-B combines expertise in equestrian sports and equine health with the latest scientific research. Through targeted deep pressure, it can help support the horse’s body awareness, promote relaxation, and aid recovery – whether in training, therapy, or everyday stable life. Each blanket is handcrafted in a workshop in Hessen, Germany, where it becomes more than just a product:

it makes a tangible difference – more focus before riding, more calm after exertion, and more trust between horse and rider.

Die Mentale Kiste

The Mental Box is an innovative, analogue self-coaching tool that empowers people to independently and effectively manage emotional challenges, mental blocks, or stressful everyday situations – completely without digital distractions or external guidance. At its core is a structured card box containing 240 elements, consisting of:

  • Topic cards that address common mental and emotional challenges, and
  • Tool cards that offer targeted methods for processing, clarification, or strengthening.

Within just a few minutes, users can navigate challenging mental states on their own and find greater clarity and emotional balance.

Revallo

Revallo is the online shop for second-hand equestrian equipment that combines sustainability and quality. Drawing from her own experience, founder Larissa Jung started her business to prove that pre-loved equestrian gear can be high-quality – and that new, often expensive products aren’t always necessary. Every item is carefully checked, honestly described, and lovingly presented, ensuring that customers can buy with confidence. Only products in like-new or excellent condition are offered.

Revallo stands for an equestrian community that buys consciously, saves resources, and values quality.
