The Gypsy Vanner originated in the United Kingdom, where they were bred to be beautiful, strong, and kind. Resembling a small draft, Gypsy Vanners typically have a heavy feathering on their legs, and have lush manes and tails. They can come in many colors and patterns, including piebald (black and white tobiano), skewbald (combinations of brown, red and white including tri-colored tobiano), and blagdon (solid color with white splashed up from underneath). They are still used for driving, in addition to being enjoyed as riding mounts, and can be seen on the trail and in the show ring! Model measures 11.75"L x 8.75"H
