Antique Early 20th-Century Large Rare Hand-Carved Asian Decorative Wooden Horse
A fabulous large hand-carved wooden decorative horse sculpture standing on its hind legs. From the early 20th-century, it was believed to have been used for precessional purposes in South-East Asia (Thailand, Cambodia). Standing at 2m tall, it is an incredible decorative piece that’s extremely rare, and it will certainly catch lots of attention. Finished in polychrome paint, it’s thought he may have spent some time outside which is why the paint is so distressed. Named Derek (by us), he fully comes apart and is easy to reassemble. There are some minor repairs visible to the tail and front left hoof (please refer to photographers) which could be cleaned up. 2m (height) x 176cm (width from tip of tail to front hoof). Base: 80cm (length) x 39cm (depth). Please note all our items are vintage or antique and will therefore show signs of age and wear, and we try to reflect this in our photographs. Our policy is to offer items such as this of being in an “as found” condition and so we ask you to look closely at the photos as they are an integral part of the description.
