Inspired by the celebrated equestrian sculptures of China’s Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE), this impressive caparisoned war horse captures the power, elegance, and prestige associated with the empire’s golden age. Finished in richly layered polychrome lacquer with hand-applied gilt detailing, the figure features a spirited stance, ornate high-pommel saddle, decorative harnesses, and finely painted tassel motifs that reflect the grandeur of imperial ceremonial horses. The deep cinnabar-red and dark plum patina enhances its historic character, while the substantial presentation base provides a commanding display. Equally suited for traditional or contemporary interiors, this striking sculpture serves as a dramatic focal point and a distinguished celebration of Chinese artistic heritage.
