Breyer accessorises
Breyer’s Traditional Series has some eye-catching new accessories – although ‘accessory’ doesn’t really do justice to the new Deluxe Wood Barn. More than 76cm wide and standing over half a metre tall, this is a beautifully constructed barn, made of natural wood and capable of housing (or should that be ‘stabling’?) a pair of Breyer Traditional horses.
There are two stalls with built-in feed bins, sliding doors, a hay loft with a working winch, a saddle and bridle rack and a cross tie area. Some assembly is required and the barn costs around £125.
Joining the Deluxe Wood Barn is the Run-In Barn (around £39.95), a smaller construction, still made of natural wood and with styling that matches the deluxe version. Open at the front, there are swinging doors at the rear for easy placement of model horses.
Again, some assembly is required and the finished product will stand around 36cm high.
The Foal Blanket with Halter assortment brings you three colourful blankets (along with colour-coordinated halters), each with a white trim, a metal buckle surcingle and a Velcro fastening. The Breyer logo is on the shoulder of each blanket.
Breyer has also introduced a range of Hot Coloured accessories to keep up to date with modern trends. Leading the way is the Hot Coloured Western Performance Riding Set (around £14.95), which has hot pink and blue highlights and includes a bridle, barrel racing saddle, breast collar, hot-coloured Western pad, splint boots and bell boots.
Joining its Western cousin, the Hot Coloured English Riding Set has pink highlights and includes a bridle, saddle, fleece saddle pad, splint boots, bell boots and riding crop. It is also priced around £14.95.
The Hot Coloured Nylon Halters speak for themselves. The three-piece assortment comes in purple, green and pink colours for around £7.95.
The Hot Coloured English Pads & Polos set includes matching saddle pads and polo wraps in green, pink and purple colours and is priced around £7.95.
Last in the new additions to the Traditional Series accessories is the Hot Pink Blanket and Shipping Boots set, priced around £3.95. Both elements have a pink and blue colour scheme and the shipping boots feature hook and loop fasteners.
