Welcome to The Tack Alchemist!

Welcome to The Tack Alchemist!

Located in Sonoma County, California, my name is Rachel Robertson and I am the owner and founder!

The Tack Alchemist's primary goal is to restore and replenish previously well loved, older English tack and saddles that need attention before becoming salable. We also carry mid to high end pre-owned tack and apparel sprinkled with some new and gently used items.

The Tack Alchemist idea came to me while battling disabling chronic illness and acute medical issues that took me far, far away from being seated in the tack and even around horses. Tack cleaning and restoration has allowed me to stay focused and integrated in a community I love. While I endure treatment, surgeries and rehabilitation I very much look forward to staying connected to the horse world through my love of tack and tack cleaning.

Services include consignment of tack, saddles and apparel and purchasing large tack lot of mid/high end tack in need of restoration or TLC.

What We Do

With 20+ years experience, The Tack Alchemist specializes in taking previously used, loved, worn, and tired English leather items such as bridles, halters, saddles, and boots, and transforms them giving them a new lease on life! (see photo to the right) , We also carry new and gently used quality tack and English riding apparel.

Tack cleaning and restoration is a huge part of the process here, and often times it take several hours per piece to disassemble and reassemble items to thoroughly doctor them appropriately as to restore them back to a functional level. With a vast array of specialized soaps, oils and conditioners (including soaps intended only for specific brands) The Tack Alchemist transforms the disarrayed leather into serviceable pieces.
