Dating to circa 1950, the terracotta has a wonderful high sheen, true white glaze that accentuates the detailed musculature and structure of each horse. The contours of the cheeks, the slightly open mouths, and the lively manes all suggest a sense of realistic movement. A perfect decorative accessory for any animal lover, these large glazed horse busts can be placed on a mantel, console, or sofa table in just about any room of the house. See less
