Description
A small teal-colored glazed ceramic horse figurine painted with a black forelock, mane, tail and hooves. The body has large halo spots with dark centers that resemble flowers and, like the coloration, are not found in nature. The figure lifts it's right front leg and extends its left rear leg in an unnatural and unbalanced pose.
