A striking example of early American folk art, the hand carved wooden horse sculpture dates to the early 20th century and showcases the rustic charm and character of outsider craftsmanship. The horse is painted in a bold red with black hand-drawn circles throughout its body, evoking a whimsical, almost tribal aesthetic. The mane, muzzle, hooves, and tail are painted in white, with worn areas revealing layers of age and handling. Its naive, expressive features and stylized form highlight the untrained artistry typical of rural or self-taught makers of the Period.. The figure stands on a flat, painted wooden base-original to the piece-which exhibits edge wear and surface abrasions consistent with its age. The sculpture's overall wear, visible cracking, and patina add authenticity and charms making it a compelling decorative object for collectors of folk art, Americana, or primitive sculpture. Its vibrant presence and tactile surface would complement cabin, country or eclectic interiors. Vintage condition consistent with age as pictured. Box S8 Dimensions Approximately: 16.5°L, 3"W, 9.5"H
