Art Deco is not only proving his ability in the show ring, he is also proving to be a top sporthorse sires. He has earned three prestigious star awards and is an Elite stallion. Art Deco has competed successfully through Grand Prix Dressage and in the small amount of  Hunters, Eventing and Jumpers we did with him, he was always in the ribbions. He is truly one of the foremost sporthorse stallions in the country today.  Throughout his career Art Deco has won many top awards in Dressage, including being in the top 3 for all Dutch Warmbloods & Pintos in the USA for each level he has competed at.  He has won 4 Grand Prix Dressage High Score Championships.  He consistently qualified for the Championships and Devon at the FEI levels.

Art Deco is one of those rare individuals who can combine an extremely heavy breeding schedule with showing and training.  His temperament is outstanding.  We ask a lot of him and he always comes through for us.  Our operation is small and the stallions live in an 8 stall barn with each other along with mares and foals.  Our breeding dummy is also housed in the same barn-in the indoor arena - this is asking a lot of any stallion and all of our boys handle the situation well.  All of the stallions are very quick learners and love to work and show.

Art Deco  is the foundation sire of pinto sporthorses in the United States. He is approved Oldenburg/ISR. His progeny are winning, he has champion offspring in Dressage, Hunters, Jumpers, Eventing and Combined Driving. Breeders, owners and trainers comment of the willingness and trainability of his offspring and what a joy they are to work with.  He throws 75% pinto colored offspring. He is one of the top producers of premium offspring for ISR/Oldenburg. He is listed in the top 8 for all Dutch Warmbloods in the world for producing USDF dressage horses and the top 8 for producing ASHA hunters and jumpers. He also has produced numerous stallion sons and premium mares that are continuing his legacy.

Art Decos sire Samber received a rare 10 for temperament and trainability in Holland. Samber competed very successfully through Grand Prix Dressage and at the Z levels jumpers. Samber has been in the top 15 for producing dressage horses in Holland (out of over 400 stallions) and in the top 100 for producing jumpers. Zorba, Art Deco’s dam is a ster, preferent, prestantie mare which is some of the highest ratings a Dutch mare can have.
