A rooster in the skin of a sardine!!!
The legend of the Barcelos' rooster carried by the hands of Raquel Krügel, for the most amazing collection of sardines: of Bordallo Pinheiro.
Part of the culture and symbol of Portugal, take the Barcelos rooster, in a sardine way, to give life to the decoration of your home.
Traditions that remains in time, which modernize with creativity and surprise by their exuberance.
The sardines are made with high quality colors and decals, which allows them to have a very strong, intense and beautifull glow and color.
All the decorating process in each sardine is manual. The decoration is performed by decal process, which takes on average 10 minutes, producing only a few per day.
Each Bordallian sardine is wrapped in a original packaging to simulate a sheet of newspaper, in a throwback to the tradition of the sale of this fish in Lisbon, dating back to the XVIII century, between typical selling sayings, from the fishmongers.
