Each individual Breyer model is prepped and finished by hand and then turned over to the painting department for hand painting and detailing. In all, some 20 artisans work on each individual model horse, creating an exquisite hand-made model horse that is as individual as the horse that inspired it..
Favory Airiella and Airiella One of Europe’s oldest horse
breeds, the Lipizzan originated in the 1500s during the time of
the Austrian Empire. The breed gets its name from Lipizza
(Lipica), Slovenia - the location of one of the first established
stud farms. Today, the breed is highly sought after for their
natural talent in performing classical dressage. Tempel Lipizzans
of Illinois, was founded in 1958 to promote this incredible breed
and promote classical dressage, and is the largest
privately-owned herd in the world! Through their breeding and
training program, they combine some of the oldest Lipizzan
bloodlines with the same classical traditions and principles as
the Spanish Riding School. Each summer, they offer public
exhibitions which showcase the Lipizzan and the progression of
classical dressage training. Stallion Favory Airiella has been
trained for the courbette, a difficult maneuver where a horse
balances on its hind legs and jumps forward several times. He
demonstrates this maneuver during the Airs Above Ground Segment
(haute école) in Tempel Lipizzans’ performances. His talent is
part training, and part genetics: his sire was a levade horse,
and his dam-sire was a capriole horse! Favory Airiella is a
descendent of the original horses bred at the State Stud at
Lipizza. Favory Airiella’s dam, Airiella, also resides at Tempel
Farms. Noted for her nobility and athletic build, she’s known for
producing intelligent and athletic offspring. You’ll notice that
she and her son share part of their name. That’s because Lipizzan
stallions get the first part of their name from their sire’s line
(Favory) and the second part from their dam’s line (Airiella).
Through their commitment to both the Lipizzan breed and classical
dressage, Tempel Farms is doing their part to ensure that the
tradition and bloodlines of classically-trained Lipizzans live
on! From the Manufacturer: Breyer is the maker of the world’s
