Mother and Foal Horse

Product Overview

The mother and foal horse belongs to TYART’s animal collection: silver patina mare and foal standing side by side, hollow-cast in bronze by the traditional lost-wax method and hand-finished with a hand-applied patina. It is sized for sideboards, consoles and reception counters.

The silhouette is built on a single continuous line from muzzle to tail. The mane and tail are simplified into thick, sculptural locks rather than individually modelled strands, which keeps the surface calm at a distance and rewarding up close. The legs carry the implied movement of the pose while the mass of the body stays settled over its base, so the piece reads as balanced and grounded from every angle.

The finish is sealed against fingerprints and daily handling. On a sideboard, console or reception counter, the piece works as a quiet anchor in the room — close enough to touch, solid enough to stay put, and simple to care for with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Design Inspiration: The Horse as a Symbol of Freedom and Achievement

Across cultures the horse has always meant the same things: freedom, power and forward motion. It is the animal of triumphal arches and equestrian monuments in the West, and of the celebrated Tang dynasty glazed horses in China — no subject has been cast in bronze more often. This model draws on both traditions: the gesture is observed from life, and the lines are simplified into smooth sculptural planes that sit comfortably in a contemporary interior. Placed in an office or an entrance, it reads the same way in every market — energy, drive and success in motion.

Craftsmanship: Lost-Wax Casting and Hand Patina

Every sculpture is hollow-cast in bronze by the traditional lost-wax method: a wax model is taken from the original master, encased in a ceramic shell, burnt out and replaced with molten bronze. The raw casting is cleaned, welded and refined entirely by hand before the patina is applied layer by layer and sealed. Because the patina is finished by hand, each piece varies slightly in tone and depth — a mark of genuine cast bronze rather than a sprayed imitation.

Particular attention is paid to the head and legs: the muzzle planes are evened by hand, the hooves are crisply defined, and the mane is relieved so each lock casts its own small shadow.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does the horse suit modern interiors, or only Chinese-style rooms?

It suits both. The simplified planes and clean silhouette are contemporary, while the horse’s place in both European and Chinese art gives the piece cultural depth. In oriental-themed interiors it reinforces the theme; in modern rooms it works as a warm sculptural accent against neutral materials.

2. Is the horse shown alone, or can I order a pair or herd?

This listing is for the piece described above. Related models in the collection include pairs and group compositions; if you are planning a matched set for a lobby or showroom, contact us and we will recommend the combinations that work best together.

3. Is each sculpture exactly the same?

The casting comes from the same mold, so the form is consistent. The patina, however, is applied by hand, which means slight variations in tone between individual pieces — a normal characteristic of genuine cast bronze.

4. What is the MOQ?

We work with both single-piece orders and bulk project orders. Contact us with your quantity and destination port for an accurate quotation and lead time.

5. How is the sculpture packed for shipping?

Each piece is wrapped in protective foam and packed in a reinforced export carton; larger pieces travel in a foam-lined wooden crate. Wooden crates are standard for project shipments.
