Cadence and Shining Armor

Faith in your spouse is a crucial element in a lasting, loving relationship. But when the doom of an entire kingdom rests on a single death defying act of ultimate heroism, having lots of practice definitely helps too. With their display of top form and precision I can only guess Princess Cadence and Shining Armor must have belonged to a cheerleading team in their younger days. Either that or they participate in possibly the strangest version of Caber Toss.
Both figures and stand are carved out of Philippine mahogany while the gears and Cadence's tiara are made of narra hardwood. They're hand painted in enamel and with a protective flat lacquer top coat. The pair stand at 10" from Shining Armor's hoof to the tip of Cadence's horn while the entire piece measures 13" high, 7 1/2" long and 3 1/2" wide. It took 148 1/2 hours to complete.
