Vintage Ceramic Shire Horse Figurine Brown Draft Stallion Leather Harness Chain Equestrian Farmhouse Decor

Vintage Pottery Clydesdale Horse Ornament Brown Working Draft Figure Leather Tack Chain Stable Display

This substantial vintage ceramic horse figurine depicts a powerful Shire or Clydesdale-style working horse in a standing pose. The maker is currently unidentified, but its high-gloss brown finish, feathered white lower legs and elaborate applied tack are characteristic of decorative equestrian figures produced during the later twentieth century.

The horse is formed from glazed ceramic or pottery and has a deep chestnut-brown body with softly shaded cream and white detailing around the mane, tail and hooves. It is fitted with brown leather tack, metal rivets and gold-tone chains that create the appearance of a traditional working-horse harness. The separate leather components add texture and character to the sculpted form.

Large harnessed Shire and Clydesdale figures became popular decorative pieces in Britain during the mid-to-late twentieth century. They reflect the continuing cultural association of heavy horses with farming, brewing, haulage and rural working life. Comparable unmarked examples are commonly described as Staffordshire-style or English decorative pottery, although no specific manufacturer should be attributed without a visible factory mark. A comparable Staffordshire Reproductions example has been identified as dating to the 1970s.

The ceramic body appears to be in good vintage display condition with no obvious major chips or structural cracks visible in the supplied photographs. The leather harness shows expected age-related surface wear, variation in colour and minor distortion. The undersides of the hooves have protective pads with visible adhesive residue and wear. Please examine the photographs closely, as they form an important part of the condition description.

Please review all photos carefully and feel free to ask any questions before purchasing. We want you to be 💯 confident with your order.

A great addition for collectors or vintage lovers.
