Breyer by CollectA The Warlander was developed by crossing Friesians with purebred Iberian horses – typically Andalusians, although Lusitano and Menorquín bloodlines are also allowed. Although the Warlander wasn’t recognized as a breed until the late 20th century, the crossing of Friesian and Iberian horses has a history going back to at least the 16th century, and probably much earlier. These two Baroque breeds are distinctly different, the Friesian being a relatively heavy-set horse with dramatic action and a perfect build for carriage driving, while Iberian horses are lighter and more supple, with a reputation as supremely comfortable, brave, and willing mounts. When crossbred, the offspring inherit the best traits of both breeds and in turn, consistently pass these traits on to the next generation. Measures 4.72" x 5.83". Ages 3+
