Mythical Creature Figurines Make Great Gifts!

If someone you know loves mythical creatures - dragons, unicorns, and the like - why not buy them a beautiful figurine that captures the magic of these wondrous beings? I'm a lover of these amazing creatures and nothing makes me happier than a lovely figurine of a dragon (my favorite!), unicorn, or pegasus. And then there's Nessie to remind me of my home in Scotland, always welcome too of course!

These work especially well for Christmas as well as birthdays, graduations, Mothers Day (I'd go for that one!), or any special occasion for a lover of mythical creatures.

Mystical Creatures of Legend and Mythology 

Unicorns
I have always been fascinated by legendary creatures. They may be called "mystical" or "fabulous creatures," reflecting their supernatural nature. Often considered imaginary and without any real existence in our world, still these creatures provide a special something that enriches our lives in a variety of ways. Why not celebrate and enjoy them with a collection of delightful figurines? These make the loveliest gifts for anyone who appreciates these special creatures.

Pegasus Figurines 

Pegasus is the Spectacular White Flying Horse

People confuse Pegasus with unicorns, but Pegasus is the white horse that flies; he has no horn. Pegasus appears in Greek mythology helping Bellerophon in his heroic task of defeating the chimera. Horses make wonderful figurines of horses, so adding the wings of Pegasus just makes them even more spectacular.

Unicorn Figurines 

The Unicorn, the horse with the single horn, is especially elegant and delightful as a figurine.

 

Unicorn Birthstone Figurines 

These delightful unicorns feature birthstones making them perfect gifts! Here are some examples.

Fairies are surely one of the favorite creatures of legend and mythology. They are supernatural beings, small and humanoid.

Dragons are popular mythical creatures, appearing not only in legends and tales of old but in works of art, literature and games of the contemporary era. Did they ever exist? Do they exist today in some other realm? Whatever the answer, they are inspiring creatures in many ways, powerful, almost majestic in appearance, and credited with abilities that may be supernatural.

Actually these creatures still fly despite having no wings, because they are spiritual beings not bound by the laws of the physical world.
