Title: Horse Figures
Post by: Riddlebox on January 12, 2012, 12:21:37 PM

Hello :)
I picked up three horse figures from a store in town here and I don't know anything about them.
Here are some photos of them and their markings under the base.

Any help identifying these would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for looking.

Your horses are traditional Chinese horses, and I'm afraid not antique, but reproduction. Here is the whole set of them selling on Amazon for $25. Although they don't have a lot of value, they look lovely! http://www.amazon.com/Unique-Educational-Gift-Ideas-Children/dp/B000EYDWBQ (http://www.amazon.com/Unique-Educational-Gift-Ideas-Children/dp/B000EYDWBQ)

Thanks for the information :)
It's unfortunate they are not rare or anything but they are so beautiful I am glad to display them anyway.
Thanks again !
