Super Extra Large Multicolor Rooster
The figure of the rooster of Barcelos comes from the interesting popular legend that transports Barcelos to medieval times, and which tells the story of a pilgrim on his way to Santiago de Compostela, who was miraculously saved from the gallows, thanks to Santiago, when a rooster crowed made itself heard in a surprising way.
It was from the 50s and 60s that the rooster of Barcelos became a symbol of national tourism and an icon of a nation's identity.
With bright colors, multifaceted in size and shapes, a testament to Portugal's cultural differences and ethnographic variety.
The image of the rooster of Barcelos is universal and is a symbol of Portuguese identity present in many parts of the world, going beyond the borders of the municipality that gave it its name.
Because these roosters are so beautiful and symbolic, we warn you that the patterns may change slightly but it is always with the same color pattern.

After 6 years of a BFF ogling MY extra large Portuguese rooster, I decided it would be her perfect 50th birthday gift! I knew immediately I had to go to ETSY to search the artists and was successful in finding exactly what I was looking for from PADA WORKS! Little did I know, he was being shipped directly from Portugal! Delivery was timely and he was packaged perfectly, insuring he arrived safe and sound and….in one piece….which he did! It took my BFF a good 10 minutes to get through all the packaging but when she did, no one could believe their eyes! Her new rooster is magnificent; all I could have hoped for as a special gift for a special friend for her special birthday! PRADA WORKS will fulfill all your expectations and will not disappoint! I LOVED IT AND SO DID SHE! Thank you, PADA WORKS!

++++++Très très beau coq, vraiment magnifique, il a été pris un grand soin pour le protéger dans le protégé à fin de le rendre dans l'impossibilité d'arriver cassé.
Je suis très heureux d'avoir passé ma commandé dans cette boutique. Si vous êtes tout comme moi fan du Galo de Barcelos , ce lui-ci est une très belle représentation.
Je vous le recommande
Donc je met 5 étoiles et encore je trouve que ce n'est pas assez
