A Trakehner mare can only have a foal with a Trakehner, Arab or Thoroughbred stallion. This rule is intended to preserve the breed's elegant build and spirited character. Trakehners originated in the East Prussian town of Trakehner, near Kaliningrad in Russia.The Schleich figures are modelled with attention to detail, lovingly hand-painted with care, and provide children with educationally valuable playtime.
