About This Design

Typical Rooster of Barcelos pillow

The legend: Portugal - Barcelos - The town's famous symbol is a rooster, in Portuguese called "O Galo de Barcelos" ("the Rooster of Barcelos"). One of the many versions of this legend goes that a rich man threw a big party. When the party was over, the rich man noticed that his sterling cutlery was stolen by a guest. He accused a pilgrim and let him go to court. He protested his innocence, but the judge didn't believe him. The judge was about to eat a roasted rooster when the pilgrim said: "If I am innocent, this rooster will crow three times." When the pilgrim was about to be lynched, the rooster crowed. The judge released the pilgrim. The story ends a few years later when the pilgrim returned and made a statue over the event. - - #RoosterOfBarcelos #GaloDeBarcelos #LuckyCharm #GoodLuck #Portugal

Great quality but more importantly this cushion is unique and forms one of three in the Alice in Wonderland series for a daybed for the grandchildren when they stay over. Imaginative and fun. Lovely quality and colours
