The Rooster of Portugal Clipboard
Anyone who travels to Portugal will notice the Barcelos Rooster. Barcelos is a city and municipality in the Minho province. It's the place where the Portuguese cockerel once was created by an artisan. The colourful rooster is a symbol of Portugal’s popular culture and ancient clay handicrafts. The legend of the rooster inspired an artisan to create a rooster out of clay in Barcelos. The clay figurine was loved by many and spread throughout the country in different sizes and later in other materials like ceramics, woodwork, and metal. The colourful representation of the Barcelos Cockerel was adopted for many years as the symbol of Tourism in Portugal. The most common souvenir you’ll find in shops when travelling to Portugal is the Barcelos Rooster figurine, normally black and painted in bright colours. Traditional decoration has hearts and flowers and dots. It is said that a Barcelos Rooster in our house will attract good fortune and happiness. From kitchenware to tablecloths and keychains, the Portuguese Rooster of Luck can fit in your household perfectly. According to the legend, the pilgrim was innocent of the accusations made against him therefore God provided him with a miracle. The Rooster stands for Faith as the pilgrim had faith in God, so he was saved from death by hanging. It also stands for Justice as we should avoid making snap judgments or accusations without proof. As for LUCK, the rooster brought good luck to Santiago’s pilgrim. You can offer this article decorated with the Portuguese rooster to a friend whom you want to wish good luck or to yourself.

Turned out as expected. Love using this daily in my practice and what's better is that my colleagues don't walk off with my clipboard anymore. Looks as expected. Turned out well.

Although the product was expensive, we customized it entirely and it looked exactly as planned/advertised. The products looks like it is made of pretty good material. The product arrived within 4 business days of ordering and allowed a feature to track the package. If you are wondering, it has a plastic front that looks like a front of a whiteboard marker but does not function as a whiteboard because whiteboard marker does not erase. The colours were as expected and the images printed well.
