Michael Andersen & Søn rearing horse no. 1998 ceramic 31 cm

A rearing horse has a very special power about it, and that very expression is beautifully captured in this ceramic figurine from Michael Andersen & Søn, model no. 1998. The figurine shows the horse raised on its hind legs with tense forelegs, an upright neck and a distinctive mane that gives the motif movement and character. The warm brownish glaze, the dark details in the mane, tail and hooves as well as the rectangular base emphasize the sculptural expression and make the figurine decorative from several angles.

It is a figurine that suits both collectors of Michael Andersen ceramics and those who are fond of animal figures with clear form and presence. The horse's powerful body and the upward movement give a vivid and almost monumental impression, even though the figurine comes in a size that is easy to place in the home. It works beautifully on a shelf, a sideboard or in a display cabinet, where the play of the glaze and the silhouette of the figurine really come into their own.

Older ceramic figurines like this have a special charm because they bring both history and personality into the interior. At the same time, it is a nice way to choose a quality product with soul, which can be given new life in a modern home. A rearing horse like this is also ideal as a gift for someone interested in horses, for the collector of Danish ceramics or for the person who appreciates classic decorative art from Bornholm's ceramic tradition. The fact that the figurine is from Michael Andersen & Søn makes it extra interesting for many collectors of Danish ceramics and animal figures.
