About This Design

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Fabric

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Fabric

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos is the unofficial symbol of Portugal and one of its most recognizable icons. Inspired by an old pilgrim’s legend, the clay figurines were first just a powerful symbol of truth and justice. From the 1950s onwards the Portuguese Barcelos Rooster became a symbol of national tourism propaganda efforts and Portuguese culture. The rooster is depicted in tourist posters to promote Portugal’s folklore, traditions, landscapes, and also the hospitality and simple way of life of the Portuguese. Today it remains a source of inspiration for many Portuguese artisans and graphic artists. Tourists travelling to Portugal can’t miss it as the red big crested rooster is everywhere from north to south. The “Galo de Barcelos” makes a welcome addition to any home. It will be a thoughtful housewarming gift for a friend, co-worker, teacher, or a relative of Portuguese nationality - they will undoubtedly appreciate it. Or, maybe you just want a Portuguese souvenir while you dream about your summer trip to Portugal! There are two versions of this illustration, one has light dots, and the other has dark dots.

I have eight senior dancers graduating from Fleet-Wood Dancentre this year, and I wanted to make them something special. Love this site, as there is such a selection that I was able to make eight unique dance totes for my dancers..... Also to be able to have my logo printed and included in the bags was the icing on the cake. Quality of the printing and the cotton was just perfect!! Cotton is so lovely to work with. I have ordered several times already and will be again.

I enjoy making "keepsake dance totes" for my students when they graduate!. The fabric presses beautifully. I love the thickness of the fabric. Has more substance than cotton bought at my local fabric store. The result is a sturdy bag, full of little storage pockets, and a lifetime memory. The inside of the dance totes were lined with fabric I ordered with my School logo. The printing was clear and sharp, colours vivid.
