In 1950, a Chicago-based plastics manufacturing company called the Breyer Molding
Company released its first model horse, the #57 Western Horse. The model was designed
for a mantelpiece clock, but the Breyer Modling Company was almost immediately inundated
with requests from people who wanted to buy the horse without the clock. Because of that
overwhelming interest in the #57 Western Horse, the Breyer Molding Company's focus changed
dramatically and permanently.
In 1984, the Breyer Molding Company was purchased by Reeves international as the Breyer
Animal Creations brand. Today, the Breyer Animal Creations line is Reeves' largest and most
popular brand. Reeves' Breyer manufactures plastic, resin, and porcelain model horses, which
are cherished worldwide by children and adults alike.
Breyer horses are handcrafted and hand-painted. Approximately 20 different artists work
to complete each individual Breyer model horse. Breyer's manufacturing process is still much
the same as it was 54 years ago. Breyer models are created by hand, not by machine. Because
of this, no two Breyer model horses are exactly alike.
Breyer horses are famous for their realism and authenticity. Breyer model horses remain
the favorite choice for model horse collectors all over the worldnearly 5 million Breyer
horses are purchased by collectors every year. Annually, Breyer brings approximately 300
different model horses, accessories, and other animals to collectors.
Breyer horses are
available in five sizes and seven lines, from
Breyer Traditional models to
Breyer Stablemates
and Breyer Plush ponies.
