Chinese Carved Wooden Horse carved wooden chain whimsy One of my favorite things

One of my favorite things hanging on my own walls is a striking vintage Japanese furoshiki

and a super useful one

poetry-writing and much much more

It measures 3 1/2" tall x 4 1/8" in diameter

No wonder that the pottery of this region is regarded as among the most beautiful in South America

Chinese Carved Wooden Horse carved wooden chain whimsy One of my favorite thingsI believe this small Chinese carved wooden horse dates to the 1930s or 40s. I especially love that the pupil of one of the tiny glass eyes is cast skyward, making her seem rather coy, and also quite mischievous! I also love that the head is turned a full 180 degrees, evincing a sense of moving forward and looking back all at once. A nice little gift for the horse lover and fun addition to any menagerie! 4 1 2" tall x 3 1 2: wide x 1 1 4" deep. Great
