It is best for riders and grooms who want smaller squares or diamonds, particularly on ponies and smaller horses where a wide comb would look out of proportion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eQuarter marks are a finishing touch for showing, dressage, pony club and general smart turnout. Because this comb is narrow, the pattern scales down neatly, and the even tooth spacing makes it easy to repeat the same design on both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18 teeth, 2.2 cm wide:\u003c\/strong\u003e designed specifically for narrow, clean quarter markings\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmaller squares and diamonds:\u003c\/strong\u003e gives precise sizing for finer patterns\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuits ponies and smaller horses:\u003c\/strong\u003e compact head keeps patterns in proportion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick and consistent:\u003c\/strong\u003e even spacing helps mirror marks on both quarters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in the UK\u003c\/strong\u003e by Smart Grooming\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eBrowse more turnout and grooming kit in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/grooming\"\u003egrooming collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmart Grooming\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuarter marking comb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNumber of teeth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWidth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.2 cm (narrow)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePattern suited to\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmaller squares and diamonds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePonies, smaller horses, fine coats\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of origin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnited Kingdom\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eBrush the hindquarters until the coat is clean and lying flat.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLightly damp the coat with a sponge or water brush.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHold the comb flat against the hair and draw it through in a short, even stroke.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRepeat in parallel lines, then cross them to form squares, or angle the strokes for diamonds.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStep back, check the spacing, then mirror the same pattern on the opposite side.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRinse the comb, remove loose hair and dry before storing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size are the quarter marks this comb makes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe comb is 2.2 cm wide with 18 teeth, so it produces narrow marks and smaller squares or diamonds than a standard-width comb.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for ponies?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
