North Light - Irish Draught
Model # P1158 dark bay
Size: 9"H x 10"L
100$
The Irish Draft was created in the 18th century in Ireland, by crossing Thoroughbred Stallions with native Irish Mares. It is a large horse with a short
muscular neck and strong legs and body. The cross-breeding resulted in a versatile horse, useful in agriculture, carriage driving, riding and hunting. Today this breed is much sought after for pleasure riding, hunting and competition.
North Light model horse figurines are made of a porcelain and resin composition, which allow for the extensive mold detailing (some with individual hair detailing, braided manes & tails, etc) that is very evident in the finish. The figurines are finished in a studio where they are airbrushed with the body color and shading required for the particular breed piece. Next comes the hand detailing , which can be extensive, depending on the horses’ color pattern. Pinto and appaloosa patterns require extensive hand work, and vary greatly from horse to horse. Facial features also receive hand detailing, with expressive, lifelike eyes which have a final gloss application to make them look moist and realistic. Touches of pink are added to muzzles. Nostrils are darkened inside to add depth.
With this degree of hand detailing, each model horse will vary slightly.
In 2005, the North Light factory, located in Stoke-On-Trent, England was sold - including all existing North Light molds - by the company: WADE CERAMICS LTD. They repackaged and resold the North Light horses under the new trademark "North Light @ Wade".
Today, North Light horses are no longer being produced by Wade Ceramics, making horses highly sought after.
If your North Light horse has the "©North Light Made in the UK" backstamp, you have a valuable collectible indeed!
