Description
A celadon horse figurine based on the grounded, powerful silhouette associated with Tang sculpture. The lowered head and compact stance feel calm rather than decorative, while the crackle glaze shifts between green and gray in changing light.
Why we selected it
Tang horses are remembered for mass and movement. This smaller interpretation keeps the bowed neck, rounded chest and planted legs, giving a desk object the presence of a much larger sculpture.
What to expect
The body is finished in a celadon glaze with natural crackle. Mane, tail and saddle details are picked out in darker tones; glaze network and color vary by firing.
- Tang-inspired bowed-head horse silhouette
- Celadon glaze with individual crackle pattern
- Compact stance with strong shelf presence
- Suitable for desks, bookcases and Year-of-the-Horse gifting

Material & Craft

The Making
Tang horses are remembered for mass and movement. This smaller interpretation keeps the bowed neck, rounded chest and planted legs, giving a desk object the presence of a much larger sculpture.
Care
Dust with a soft cloth and lift from the body, not the tail or ears.
The horse is quiet from the front and more dynamic from a three-quarter angle. We place it slightly below eye level so the bowed neck reads clearly. Lift from the belly—ears and tail are the delicate points.
