Monumental One-of-a-Kind Hand-Carved Suar Wood Sculpture: Seven Galloping Horses Emerging from a Single Tree Trunk
This breathtaking 10-foot-tall masterpiece is a true tour de force of wood carving artistry, meticulously hand-crafted from a single massive trunk and root system of premium Suar tropical hardwood (also known as rain tree wood).
Weighing an impressive 678 pounds and mounted on a sturdy black base, it commands attention as a dramatic statement piece for grand entryways, lofty living spaces, or collector's galleries with high ceilings.
At its core, the sculpture depicts seven dynamic horses in full gallop—rearing, leaping, and surging upward in a powerful spiral composition that evokes freedom, energy, and untamed spirit.
The horses seamlessly emerge from the natural twists and flows of the tree's trunk and roots, blending organic form with exquisite figurative detail.
Every muscle, mane, and flowing tail is rendered with remarkable intricacy, showcasing the anonymous master carver's extraordinary skill in transforming one solid piece of wood into a living herd.Suar wood's rich, warm golden-brown grain and natural variations add depth and luminosity, enhancing the sense of movement and vitality.
This is a genuine one-of-a-kind work—no molds, no duplicates—likely inspired by traditional Southeast Asian (possibly Balinese or Indonesian) carving techniques, where artisans celebrate the horse as a symbol of power and grace.
Perfect for equestrian enthusiasts, lovers of monumental sculpture, or those seeking a bold, conversation-starting focal point. Due to its size and weight, professional white-glove delivery and installation are recommended.
Priced at $25,000.
