Last time we featured some fun arty horse items for the home and this time we have some more stunning decor to share. Statues and sculptures have to be our favorite types of horse art and these don’t disappoint.
Sculpted Horse
Whether they are lovingly sculpted out of clay, molded in metal or carved from wood, we love the strikingly physical equine form. There is something about three-dimensional art that has a way of capturing the essence of the animal, even when the form isn’t entirely equine in nature. These aren’t your average horse statues, each one was hand selected for their beauty of form and craftsmanship (and most of them are on our list this year).
From modern stylized forms to highly detailed realistic representations, they all capture the spirit of our favorite animal.
