Vintage Polychrome Wood Warrior Statue on Horse - Striking Decorative Sculpture

About the Item

A vintage Burmese polychrome wooden statue from the mid-20th century, depicting a warrior on a horse. This vintage Burmese polychrome wooden statue captures the commanding presence of a warrior astride his horse, creating a dramatic focal point in any space. The warrior, with his golden face, stands in vivid contrast against the deep black of his traditional uniform, enhancing the statue’s striking visual appeal. His horse, rendered in a warm reddish-brown hue and poised confidently on a pedestal, completes the ensemble with a sense of dynamic movement and strength. The intricately carved details in the warrior's attire, saddle, and horse's mane demonstrate remarkable craftsmanship, making this sculpture a captivating decorative object. With its vibrant polychromed patina and carefully proportioned form, this Burmese carved wooden statue effortlessly draws the eye and adds character to any room. Place it in a living room or entryway to introduce a touch of exotic allure and cultural richness. Its height, comparable to the back of an armchair, ensures it commands attention without overwhelming the space. Perfect as a conversation starter, this striking piece will bring both history and artistry into your home, inviting admiration from all who encounter it.

Japanese Wood Carved Polychrome Sculpture of a Seated Temple Monk, Edo Period

Located in Studio City, CA

This is truly a wonderful piece with clear age and a nice patina to it. Very unique. We have not seen another quite like it. The monk appears to have glass eyes which gives his expression a very humanistic feel. The head is removable (please see the last image). From a collection of Japanese arts and artifacts. Most likely dates back to the Edo period. Would make for a nice addition to any Japanese or Asian artifacts...

Antique, Rare & Decorative Pair of Hand Carved and Hand Painted Horse Sculptures

Located in Lisse, NL

Stunning and unique pair of matching horse sculptures. With a combined experience of almost 30 years in the antiques trade, we were thrilled to once again find beautifully hand-crafted and decorative antiques that we had never seen before. From the density and the weight we can see and feel that these highly decorative horse sculptures are made of a tropical hardwood. Like, for example, with antique mirror frames or church sculptures these horses too were first covered with a mixture of chalk and glue so that the paint would hold longer. And, as so often is the case with antiques, the colors that were used for painting these horses are so much more beautiful than anything you find in this day and age that they truly are an absolute joy to look at. From the colors, the wear, the materials and the techniques that were used to create these horses we can see that these are 19th century antiques. However and unfortunately we lack the knowledge to be able to tell you from which country these highly decorative and sizeable works of art originate. We just can't find matching style horse sculptures anywhere on the worldwide web. They could be Chinese or Nepalese, but they could also be Persian or Arabian. We just have not been able to find out. What we do know is that they are definitely antique, they are in beautiful condition (with some wear, consistent with their age), they are highly decorative, probably unique and they have a look and feel that will instantly change the atmosphere of the room they are in. Mind you, our sharp price for this wonderful pair of horse sculptures...
