A Proud Legacy
Did you know that Breyer released its first model horse in 1950? Made from injection-molded cellulose acetate, a unique cellulose-based plastic, the #57 Western Horse sculpted by Christian Hess, was the Breyer Molding Company’s first model. It was a made-to-order piece to decorate a mantel clock for Woolworth’s, the venerable department store of the 1950s and 1960s. Appreciation for this realistic and authentically scaled equine was widespread. Soon, horse lovers were lobbying the company for freestanding horses of different breeds, and the Breyer Molding Company’s business changed forever.
Renowned Artists
Breyer’s most prolific sculptor was Christian Hess, who would go on to create more than 100 sculptures for Breyer of varying sizes.
Hess was more than just a sculptor; he was an artist and an engineer who also understood the possibilities and challenges of creating art from injection-molded material. Hess sculpted horses, livestock and wildlife with an unerring eye for authenticity, and oversaw production and decoration as well. He helped set a standard for realism and authenticity which today remains the hallmark of the Breyer brand.
Hess was later joined by other talented and legendary artists that Breyer is privileged to work with today! As a member of the Breyer Vintage Club, you’ll learn more about Breyer’s history and legacy with each new release.
Beloved Collectibles
Sold at toy and tack shops, Breyer models became synonymous with the horse world. Horse lovers of all ages began to amass collections of Breyer models. Some collected by breed, others by scale, and others by finish. Models in the Vintage Club blend the molds and finish work of both vintage and modern Breyer models. Club offerings include both vintage decorations on newer molds, as well as fresh interpretations of vintage favorites, which include a variety of finishes from high gloss to “chalky” white basecoats.
Exclusive Vintage Club Forum
Join the conversation! Breyer’s Vintage Club Forum is the place to talk about Vintage Breyer models! It’s a great place to share stories about your latest flea market finds, reminisce about favorite models, and share your ideas for exciting new models that have not yet been created!
