Allegro, the Lipizzaner Stallion

One of the most well known horses in the world is the Lipizzaner, because of the famous Lipizzaner Stallions in Vienna, Austria. This hobby horse is modeled after those white stallions. "Allegro" bears the letter L branded (woodburned) into his cheek, just under his bridle, to represent that he is of true Lipizzan descent. He has the traditional pure white body and long, thick white mane, with just a touch of grey around his muzzle. His tack is themed in the colors of the Viennese Riding School: black reins and headstall with red and gold accents and gold (brass) hardware. The word "Allegro" is defined as "a brisk and lively tempo", which seems appropriate for a horse known for its ability as a graceful, energetic dancer and beautiful performer.

Allegro's body is painted pure white, with a red "polo wrap" and gold trim at the end (not shown). His head is made from high quality pine and measures an 1 3/4" thick - extra sturdy and ready for outside play.

No two horses are exactly alike, due to their handmade nature. Your horse may differ slightly from the one pictured, but will be equally as charming!
