Carousel Rooster Figurine by Lenox. 2011 limited edition, pristine condition

  

This fun, colourful carousel rooster was made in the USA as a collector's item limited edition in 2011. He's part of the Lenox carousel animals collection - you'll often see the carousel horse for sale, but not the rooster. If you ever went to a funfair as a child you'll immediately recognise the bright colours, golden accents and running feet position of a carousel (or merry-go-round if you prefer) animal. The level of detail is amazing, down to the sunflowers on his saddle, and his scaly legs!

He's made of Lenox "fine bisque" porcelain and the hand painted colours, accented with gold, are as bright now as the day he was made. He comes sitting on his own gold-coloured post on a polished wooden base with a suede effect bottom. From base to the tip of his comb he measures 22.5 cm, 8.5. The base is 20 cm, 8 long.

This piece is discontinued, of course, and very rare for it to appear on the UK market. I bought him during a trip to the States and have never seen the rooster advertised in the UK. This rooster has sat on my bookshelf since I bought him new in 2011.

He's in perfect condition, as is the base. The perfect, unique gift for the chicken-lover in your family!
