From the Trail of Painted Ponies Collection, Phoenix Pony. Designed by artist, Wendy Wells-Bailey. Made of hand-painted resin. Measures 6" tall.

This limited edition pony is retired and was not ever available to retailers. It was specially commissioned for replication by the original sponsor, with under 9,500 total made.

The Ancient Ones called these deserts home. Then, around 1400 A.D., for unknown reasons, they mysteriously disappeared. Hundreds of years later, a new town would arise from the ruins that would be appropriately named "Phoenix" after the fabulous mythical bird of brilliant scarlet and gold plumage that was said to have perished in flames, only to arise from the ashes. 

"The Phoenix Pony" stands as a tribute to a timeless and a beautiful city that shares its name, and to the human capacity for renewal and rebirth. Created exclusively for The Phoenix Store at the Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, AZ in 2005.
