English Knight on Horseback with Dragon Helmet – Green Velvet – Marto
Details and Craftsmanship
The figure depicts a knight in full plate armor, crowned with a Great Helm featuring a prominent dragon crest. This symbol evokes the legendary power of Uther Pendragon and the martial spirit of England. The knight carries a lance with a banner displaying the French *fleur-de-lis*, while his shield and the horse's caparison bear the Three Lions of England, symbolizing the historic dual monarchy claims of the Plantagenet era.
The horse is cast from high-quality resin and fitted with armored barding. The rich green velvet caparison is intricately embroidered with gold thread, creating a stunning contrast against the silver armor. The statue stands firmly on a polished wooden base, complete with a certificate of origin and quality.
