North Light Paard; Clydesdale: Dark Bay/White Socks (H=24cm) The Clydesdale breed originated in Lan-arkshire, Scotland, in the 18th century. A local farmer imported a draft stallion from Flanders. This stallion was crossed with local mares and is credited with the subsequent development of the new breed. The official introduction of the breed, under its current name, took place at the Glasgow Exhibition in 1826. By this time, the characteristics of the breed were well defined and had been enhanced by cross-breeding with Flemish and Friesian stallions. By the year 1878, the official Clydesdale Stud Book had been established and this beautiful horse had become an essential part of Scottish life. The Clydesdale became so popular in Scotland, that it replaced the Shire as a carriage horse as well as having become the heavy draft and farm horse of choice. The Clydesdale stands 16 to 17 hands high at the withers. He is generally Bay in color, but also born brown, black, or chestnut with white lower legs. White face markings are usual. The head is broad with a convex profile, and not large when compared with the body. The ears are small and the eyes are in proportion to the head. The neck is quite long, arching and very thick. The withers are very pronounced, the back short and chest muscular, wide and deep. Legs are muscular and strong and always have feathering. The white coat color frequently extends up the legs onto the chest and underside. With his calm, sociable personality and his willing nature, the Clydesdale has remained one of the most recognized and popular heavy draft breeds. The North light model of the Clydesdale shows all of the breed characteristics in a large well-balanced figurine. The carefully detailed head is small, the body heavy and well muscled, the legs are strong with well defined muscle structure and the all-important leg feathering is beautifully done. Size: Height 9 1/4", Length 10 3/4"
