"This test run model was produced in the early 2000s as a test for the design of 'Jade', who would go on to be released in 2002 as a special run model for QVC, celebrating the Year of the Horse in the Zodiac. The design on the Classics Arabian Stallion is largely the same as his Traditional scale counterpart, featuring an elaborate design with filigree, flowers, and the Chinese character for 'horse' in calligraphic style. His body color is a shaded green reminiscent of his namesake jade.
This Glossy Jade Classics Arabian Stallion is in excellent condition overall, with no notable flaws aside from a couple of pinpoint black specks under the gloss finish. As always, tiny imperfections may be present as a result of our handmade production process. This piece of Breyer history is priced at $1,500.00 and comes with a certificate of authenticity." www.breyerhorses.com.
