Description
A pair of cast metal horse figurines, likely bronze or spelter, featuring a deep brown patinated finish. These figures are modelled in the traditional Tang Dynasty style, characterised by their arched necks, docked tails, and powerful, stylised musculature. Each horse is depicted fully caparisoned with intricate tack, including detailed bridles and saddles draped with textured blankets. The casting captures fine decorative elements in the saddlecloths and harness. These pieces are decorative interpretations of ancient Chinese funerary art, likely produced in the mid to late 20th century. No maker’s marks or signatures are present. Height: Approximately 8.5 cm.
