DESCRIPTION
Some people are born with a pretty face, Gorgeous George wasn’t. Not that he cares – a pretty face won’t save you while roaming the crashing and churning waters along the Atlantic coast. Above all, he knows very well his brain is worth a million and all the shipmen rely on his deep knowledge of the sea.
We have created Pig & Hen to help us find that way…
In the early 1600’s the Dutch were the leading nation sailing out to unknown parts of the world, with the biggest naval fleet the world had ever seen. With some serious sea legs, they discovered new lands, different ways of life but also ran into some big obstacles along the way.
To protect themselves against bad luck the men had a tattoo of a pig and a hen on their feet. It was believed it gave the sailors the ability to survive when they had to abandon ship. The sailors felt they would be able to find land, just like the Pig and Hen who were kept in wooden crates and thus floated, and would let the tide bring them home.
