|
The Breyer Traditional range offers a selection of horses sculpted with Breyer's characteristic attention to detail and authenticity. Traditional models are sculpted from cellulose acetate, a high quality plastic, on a scale of 1:9. This model horse is of the famous event horse, Headley Britannia.
Stable name "Brit", Headley Britannia is a Thoroughbred X mare and is one of only two horses in history to have won all three of the top four-star events (Badminton, Burghley, and Rolex).
This gorgeous model horse is the perfect gift for children and collectors of Brayer models.
Breyer are manufactures of the world's finest model horses.
Breyer models begin as beautiful horse sculptures created by leading equine artists that are then cast into a copper and steel mold. Each model is created one at a time from the original mold, which is injected with a special resin selected by Breyer for its ability to capture the depth of detail, delicate feel and richness of color in our models. Once the model is molded, Breyer’s artisans take over, and the handwork begins. Each individual Breyer model is prepped and finished by hand and then turned over to the painting department for hand painting (with airbrushes) and detailing (with paint brushes). In all, some 20 artisans work on each individual model horse, creating an exquisite hand-made model horse that is as individual as the horse that inspired it.
