A striking large vintage wire horse and sulky sculpture, handmade from layered silver, brass toned, and dark metal wire. This one of a kind equestrian art object has a modernist, sculptural quality, almost like a line drawing brought into three dimensions.
The piece depicts a harness racing horse pulling a sulky with a seated driver. The open wire construction gives it movement, texture, and shadow, while the mixed metallic tones add depth and visual contrast. It feels airy, expressive, and display worthy from every angle.
This is a beautiful piece for someone drawn to equestrian decor, horse racing history, harness racing memorabilia, or folk art, but looking for something more elevated than a standard horse figurine. It works especially well in interiors with mid century modern decor, western modern styling, rustic modern accents, studio pottery, brass, art books, and collected vintage pieces.
While unsigned, the piece has the handmade character associated with wire folk art and outsider art traditions. It is being sold as a decorative vintage wire sculpture, not as an attributed artist piece.
