The Western discipline is the second to be featured in the Elegance series, a series that is the epitome of Breyer quality. Breyer has created a series that brings collectors the highest quality horse, rider, tack and accessories that are widely available.
The Elegance Western set begins with a beautifully painted Dun Pinto Paint Horse. The horse is done on the Zippo Pine Bar mold, a mold created for one of the most famous Quarter Horse stallions in recent years. This mold which was sculpted by Sommer Prosser is a very popular mold that excels in performance showing, being one of the best Western mounts in Breyer’s stable. The model is featured in the perfect gait for Western Performance and looks calm, cool and collected. The beautiful Dun color is accented by large flashy patches of white markings along with primitive leg barring.
The horse includes a beautiful porcelain doll dressed authentically and beautifully. Her fancy white, gold and rhinestone encrusted shirt is the perfect replica of the western show shirts that many riders wear so proudly. She also is wearing a pair of leather chaps, boots and a hat to complete the outfit. Her hair is beautifully created and styled in mohair and she has a realistic calm look to her face. Her limbs are movable and ready to take on any event you could ask of her!
A beautifully crafted western saddle and bridle set was created especially for this set. Outfitted with loads of leather carving and silver, this set is similar to any of the fancy tack you would see at a top class show. Working buckles, breast collar and a realistic cinch really sets off the set as a huge step above anything available currently! This set even includes a wooden, hand crafted tack box, which is realistic in every way and is an exact miniature, only shrunk down to 1:9 scale! And the final touch on this set is the beautiful box which it is packaged in, which can be used for many years to come. With fitted foam and a sturdy construction it will make an excellent place to store your set when not in use.
An absolute must have for a die hard Western fan, performance lover, or collector the Western Elegance set is everything you could ask from Breyer, a beautiful horse, tack, doll and packaging all in one set!
