"Done on the classic sculpt by Rich Rudish, Sham (mold #410) was originally part of Breyer’s Artist Series in the 1980s. Since this year also happens to be Breyer’s 70th anniversary, we’ve thrown a few throwbacks like this handsome guy into the mix. Lugh (pronounced “loo”) has been done for BreyerFest’s Celtic Fling in a richly-shaded medium bay with a high-gloss finish and an unusual feature – a gulastra plume! This unique genetic anomaly was named for the Arabian stallion Gulastra, whose bay descendants were commonly found with a light or flaxen tail instead of a black tail. With such a strong look about this model, we felt it fitting to name him after one of the most prominent gods in Irish mythology. Portrayed in the folklore as a warrior, a king, and a hero, Lugh is associated with oath-making, the truth, and law. He is celebrated during the summer harvest festival Lughnasadh, which takes place around August 1st." www.breyerhorses.com.
Lugh was a special run available to 3 day ticket holders for the 2020 online BreyerFest due to CoVid.
