About This Design

Portuguese Rooster Ceramic Knob

Portuguese Rooster Ceramic Knob

The Portuguese Rooster of Luck or Portuguese Barcelos Rooster is one of the most popular Portuguese symbols. Abroad it’s known as The Portuguese Rooster or Cockerel. You can find this rooster in every corner of Portugal, it's a popular souvenir. These rooster decorated with small hearts and flowers makes a perfect gift for those born in Portugal or those fond of this country. It evokes the mystique of Faith, Good Luck, and Justice. The legend of the Barcelos Rooster tells a story about a pilgrim travelling to Santiago of Compostela who was accused of stealing silver from a landowner. He was a stranger in the region of Barcelos and no one believed this Christian devotee was fulfilling a promise. He was quickly found guilty and sentenced to death by hanging. Allowed to plead his innocence to the judge he was taken to his house when the magistrate was about to tuck into a roasted cockerel. The pilgrim vowed that as proof of his innocence, the cockerel would stand up on his plate and crow. The judge and friends laughed hard. As the pilgrim was about to be hung, the cockerel miraculously stood up and crowed. The judge hurried to the gallows in the square to free the innocent man. The rope was around his neck, but the loosened knot protected the pilgrim from being strangled. He immediately continued his pilgrimage. The pilgrim was innocent and therefore God provided him with a miracle. The Rooster stands for Faith as the pilgrim had faith in God, so he was saved. It also stands for Justice as we should avoid making snap judgments or accusations without proof. As for LUCK, the Good Luck Rooster or Lucky Rooster are popular names for Barcelos Rooster. The rooster brought good luck to the pilgrim and one likes to believe he also brings a little good luck to us!

I have created and ordered hundreds of knobs on my Zazzle store, and I've been thrilled with all. The fairy series though is exceptional. Sure, the clarity on my porthole windows, seashells, etc. was perfect; yet, when I opened the package and saw these, I was mesmerized. I stared at them off and on all night wondering how they could print such beautiful absolutely perfect details without a flaw ... the color, the eyes, the overall product considering how small the knobs are and how detailed the little fairies are which cannot be seen in my photos even. These are perfect for a child's room, for furniture to give a Victorian look, and I am ordering the entire series to eventually use on a dresser as well as wood strips (2 or 3 at a time) to make hangers for jewelry and clothing. If yours turn out like mine, you'll be amazed. My photos do not do the knobs justice. Another Zazzle hit above and beyond perfection! I keep asking myself how they did it. Yes, to print an anchor or seashell on a small ceramic knob has always been beautiful with Zazzle; yet, how on earth did they catch every detail in the eyes, face, etc. of these? Kudos to the printers! Again, my photos do not do the knobs justice. The product is exactly as the photo you see on the product page for sale.

We used this as the handle for a box we made to hold our clients beloved Springer's ashes. The wording and image was perfect for the application. The clarity of the image is descent for the size.

These cabinet knobs are high-quality ceramic knobs. This was the first time we ordered them from here, and we will order again, when we remodel our bathroom. THEY CAME OUT FABULOUS!! We ordered a dozen of these for a cabinet we were refinishing, in 12 different designs, and this bathroom design came out great! Perfect cabinet knobs to freshen up any dresser or bathroom.
