These carriages were popular in the 19th century and developed by London coach builders Tilbury, and named after Captain Henry FitzRoy Stanhope. Done has a richly-shaded liver chestnut sabino with a feisty ginger mane and tail, this handsome boy is presented on mold #483, Big Ben, sculpted by Kathleen Moody." www.breyerhorses.com.
