Both a work and riding horse, the Fjord is a small but stout breed that originated in Norway. Despite its stocky and muscular build, the Fjord horse has a very calm and gentle disposition, making it a great horse for first-time riders looking to learn and train.
Scientific Name: Equus ferus caballus
Characteristics: Although they’re small in stature, Fjords have a huge personality! Painted by hand and crafted with lifelike realism and accuracy, this figurine is great as a toy or teaching aid, as a piece of décor for around the house, or as a gift for an aspiring rider.
Size and Color: 14 cm long and 9.5 cm tall, this model is a bit bigger than a soda can laid on its side. All Fjord horses, our figurine included, are dun in color and have thick manes and tails. Their manes are sometimes cut in a crescent shape to emphasize their sturdy necks.
