About the Item
An interesting pair of lifesize Roman style composition stone horse heads, beautifully weathered by exposure to the elements over many years.
Well-sculpted, the maker has captured the essence of each horse through their characteristic detail. You don’t need to see their bodies to envisage how these horses would have looked, steeped in majesty and prestige.
Each horse has an adornment atop their head suggestive of a regal embellishment, further enhancing their air of grandeur.
Together, they will make handsome ornaments for a garden, usable as statuary or finials. Alternatively, they could be used indoors as part of an interior scheme.

Carved Limestone Horsehead from Italy
Located in Dallas, TX
Hand-carved by an Italian stone mason, this quaint limestone horsehead has excellent proportions. The contour of the cheek, the thick mane, and the slightly open mouth give the head a sense of realism. Carved with amazing precision, the horse can stand upright (face up) without the aid of a stand. Of course, it can also be hung on a wall in the proper orientation. Decorative horse heads of this size were often seen hanging on the exterior wall of a horse barn.
