Wooden model of Gorsedd member, wearing blue robes with white bearded face. The model has been shaped of thin cut plywood and the face and costume painted in detail on one side and glued to a rectangular base of bare plywood; two rectangular slots have been cut in the model for each detachable arm, one of which holds a 'peithynen' (a wooden frame devised by Iolo Morganwg to be used by the bards).
Part of a model of the 1914 Gorsedd of the Bards. Made by the Vale of Clwyd Toy Factory in Trefnant. The company provided employment for wounded soldiers during and after the First World War. As a result of the outbreak of war, the Bangor National Eisteddfod of 1914 was postponed until 1915.
