Decorative Pair of Hand Carved and Hand Painted Horse Sculptures
Located in Lisse, NL
Stunning and unique pair of matching horse sculptures.
With a combined experience of almost 30 years in the antiques trade, we were thrilled to once again find beautifully hand-crafted and decorative antiques that we had never seen before. From the density and the weight we can see and feel that these highly decorative horse sculptures are made of a tropical hardwood. Like, for example, with antique mirror frames or church sculptures these horses too were first covered with a mixture of chalk and glue so that the paint would hold longer. And, as so often is the case with antiques, the colors that were used for painting these horses are so much more beautiful than anything you find in this day and age that they truly are an absolute joy to look at. From the colors, the wear, the materials and the techniques that were used to create these horses we can see that these are 19th century antiques. However and unfortunately we lack the knowledge to be able to tell you from which country these highly decorative and sizeable works of art originate. We just can't find matching style horse sculptures anywhere on the worldwide web. They could be Chinese or Nepalese, but they could also be Persian or Arabian. We just have not been able to find out. What we do know is that they are definitely antique, they are in beautiful condition (with some wear, consistent with their age), they are highly decorative, probably unique and they have a look and feel that will instantly change the atmosphere of the room they are in.
Mind you, our sharp price for this wonderful pair of horse sculptures...

Small Vintage Indian Exterior Rust Colored and Carved Wooden Horse from Madras
Located in Yonkers, NY
A small Indian vintage carved and rust colored wooden horse sculpture from Madras with distressed patina. Born in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu during the midcentury period, this small carved wooden horse sculpture from Madras captivates with its petite proportions and rust-colored distressed patina. Standing proudly on its four legs, this charming horse, circa 1950, showcases an appealing archaic style. The weathered patina adds a touch of rustic authenticity, enhancing the horse's character and highlighting its age and history.
The sculpture exudes an undeniable 'joie de vivre,' making it a delightful decorative object, perfect for adding a whimsical touch to a child's room. The horse's graceful stance and detailed carving demonstrate the artisan's skill and attention to detail. The rust-colored finish, distressed over time, brings a vintage charm that will complement various interior styles, from rustic farmhouse to eclectic bohemian.
As an accent piece, this Madras carved horse can be placed on a chest, or console table, infusing the space with a sense of history and cultural richness. Its compact size makes it versatile and easy to incorporate into different settings, while its unique patina ensures it stands out as a conversation piece.
