Ferrari/Lambo Owners: Life Size Stallion/Bull in Gold

[Andy M]

A friend of mine is a master wood carver and makes life size model of wild animals (elephants, lions, giraffes, bears etc) which go down a treat in The US.

While visiting him I saw his latest piece of work, a raging bull:



For reference, the lady in the photo is 5"5'

I put it to him to make similar size versions of Ferrari's Prancing Stallion, or Lamborghini's Raging Bull in gold leaf, but wanted to see if there would be any sort of market for this?

They're not cheap, but are fantastically crafted.

Looks very nice, but personally I wouldn't have room to store something that size. Half life size might be a more attractive proposition.

Hi Del Boy,

They can be any size, as they're all handcrafted. It may have been pressumptious of me, but I thought Fezza/Lambo owners to be no shrinking violets, and so the bigger the better

The market we spoke about him aiming towards was the Arab market, where I've found the above to almost always be the case...

Pretty sure Allan from LamboPower has a Bull statue in his garden.

Wherever that goes, it's definitely going to be a talking point.

A gold one would be nice, but a white marble one would be divine.. esp for the Arabs.. but then that's stone masonry I suppose ;( doh

Diamonds for eyes and remote control rotating horns as well? Perfect.

Hey, that's what happens at most Lambo meets anyway!
