Where To Buy A Fiberglass Horse
"The statues are mainly used for advertising by businesses or on horse farms," says Michelle Otten, a representative of FiberStock, Inc. of Buffalo, Minn. The company makes other animals, too.
The statues are hand seamed together from molds and sprayed with a fiberglass coating. You can paint them or have the company do it. Custom painting costs between $350 and $500.
Fiberglass horses sell for $600 to $3,000 and custom-made molds of a particular animal sell for $2,000 to $5,000.
It's an investment that lasts, too. "We've seen statues that have been around for more than 30 years and are still in good shape."
