Vintage Hand Carved Animal Head Statue

Celebrate heritage craftsmanship with this striking antique wooden horse head, carved from solid teak and mounted on a minimalist iron stand. Originally part of a South Indian temple chariot (rath), this piece is estimated to be 70–80 years old, and carries rich signs of age, use, and cultural ritual.

The powerful form and stylized detailing of the horse’s features reflect the spiritual symbolism of horses in Indian temple processions—associated with strength, speed, and divine service.

Now repurposed as a collector’s display sculpture, this artifact is perfect for luxury interiors, entry consoles, or study decor. The combination of organic age-old teak with the modern iron base creates a stunning contrast between tradition and contemporary taste.
