Hand-carved horse statue with patina! Gem of wood. The beautiful patina finish on this hand carved horse statue is reminiscent of old handicrafts by local artisans in Asia. This wooden gem stems from Indonesia, and would normally be hung on a roof or balcony. These beautiful carved figures can be found all over Asia – especially in old houses and temples. Many of these carvings, which one can easily pass by without a second thought, are true works of art with an immensely decorative flare. These exquisite galloping horse statues once adorned the roof of an old Indonesian house. Fortunately, these ornaments have been partially preserved and used as decorations, so that others can enjoy their timeless look. The old wood is faded and you can see that time has left its mark. The horse's ears are no longer perfect. Discolorations, small nicks and cracks cover the surface of the statue. You can see the wooden horse has a long history – it enchants us with its beauty and takes us a journey back in time throughout Asia.
