About the Item

These hefty iron horse busts are inspired by the ancient Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD), a time when horses were revered symbols of bravery and success. The horses with large eyes and robust hips have a solid build with well-defined muscles, demonstrating power and strength. Their heads are held high, exuding a sense of pride and alertness. The golden finish adds a touch of luxury and majesty to their appearance. The horses are shown in a reclining pose, which is a common motif in Chinese art, symbolizing peace and tranquility. The original design has been reimagined in a contemporary style, resulting in these stunning pieces that blend tradition with modern aesthetics. These horse busts are superb design elements that elevate any interior space.
