6 Inches Terracotta Bankura Horse (Pair)

Terracotta horses bear an inordinate significance in the history of Indian handicrafts. The ‘Bankura Horse’ has now come to be regarded as a symbol of the artistic excellence of Indian rural handicrafts – a fact which finds confirmation in its use as the official crest-motif of the All India Handicrafts Board. These horses embody dynamism with erect ears & neck. The ornate carvings such as the embellished eyebrows & forehead, decorated with chandmala bestow a breathtakingly arresting beauty to these artforms.
