Symbols of Portugal - Galo de Barcelos Mouse Pad
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.

Hi, you may notice that the edges of the graphics are irregular. It is on purpose to give a rustic appearance, to reenforce the typical and cultural heritage. The same happens to some other designs on the "The Rooster of Barcelos store". If you prefer regular edges, please let me know :) Best wishes - Silvia.

It was meant for me and my wife. We wanted to collect all mouse pads that shows the different seasons. It turn out to be a nice quality with a winter scene. The printing was done in good quality and we are satisfied.

It was time for a new mouse pad and being that I am at the computer so much, I wanted something pleasing to look at. I was completely floored when I received this one from Zazzle. The quality is great, and at such a great price! I paid a little over $15.00 - and with it being a custom photo??? - can't beat that! The photo of my pup was even better than the original that I took with my iphone - no special zoom camera. I wasn't sure if it would maintain quality when being blown up for the mouse pad size but WOW - the colors are vibrant, and it actually looks like my sweet pup is actually looking at me...... so so so so very happy with the result!

I chose to order my mouse pad from Zazzle because I had ordered some custom stickers for a project that I was working on 2022. I was very pleased with the stickers, so I decided that I would order my mouse pad from "Zazzle" because I wanted a mouse pad that really represents my dental office. The mouse pad that I was currently using was a promotional item sent to my office by a dental lab. Recently, it started to look a little worn and had several cracks in it. I was happy that you could do your own custom design on the website. When I received the mouse pad, I was very happy with its' appearance. Quite frankly, it looks great. I love it so much that I want to have a a tee shirt and a coffee mug with the same design. I would definitely purchase this mouse pad again. Thank you so much "Zazzle"!! The quality of the mouse pad is excellent. It looks great and is durable. AAA+ . The printing looks great. It exceeded my expectations. I love it!!
