Cow Parade

Full size fibreglass cows decorated by artists have been exhibited in cities across the world in 'Cow Parades'. These are ceramic or resin facsimiles of some of these beautiful cows.

Cow Parade Figurines

Artists have decorated full size fibreglass cows which have been exhibited in prominent outdoor sites in various cities. The originals have mostly been auctioned for charity but the cows live on as miniatures.

We have a range of beautifully finished Cow Parade ceramic and resin miniatures of these cows. Each one is about 15 or 16cm long (over 6 inches) and they make wonderful decorative objects. We also have Mini Cow Parade figures. these are about 7cm (3 inches) long and are made of resin. Like the other cow parade figures these are supplied boxed. The Mini Cow Parade cows are in a display box with the cow visible through a clear plastic window.

More About Cow Parades

Cow Parades have taken place all around the world. The idea originated with a Swiss sculptor Peter Knapp in 1998. He developed the idea after seeing an exhibition of decorated lions in Zurich; lions are the city's emblem. Peter organised an event called Land in Sicht (Countryside in View) in which decorated cows were placed in prominent public spaces in the city.

Cow Parades have taken place in several UK cities including London, Manchester and Edinburgh. There have also been Cow Parades in many cities in North and South America, Europe and other places worldwide.
