CollectA Shetland Pony, Chestnut

CollectA's stocky Shetland Pony - Chestnut is realistic in every detail, down to its shaggy mane and heavy coat. Since the Bronze Age (3600 - 1200 BC), small horses have been kept on the Shetland Isles. The strong, compact Shetland Pony has been used to plow farm land. It is strong enough to pull twice its weight, as demonstrated when Shetlands were used to haul coal during the Industrial Revolution. Today, Shetlands are ridden by children and adults at horse shows. CollectA's lifelike, collectible Shetland Pony measures 3.7''L x 2.2''H. CollectA horses are created under the supervision of equestrian sculptor Deborah McDermott, who studies the movement, expression and unique qualities of each animal.
