    This item was sold as a horse and I'm looking at it thinking ??? Is it a horse with artistic license or some other animal? It's face is rather thin and the tail reminds me of those antelope type animals that jump around in Africa. Or the tail could just be wrapped around the horse after a fit of spinning in place? Anyway, he's 10" high and 6" wide. Also, any idea who made it? Maybe it could be from Murano? IDK

    I know horses are depicted a number of ways. I'm selling an aluminum one now on EB that looks like the horses in Avatar. So who knows? TIA for your help.

    It would appear that if you're a glass worker that's one way to put a tail on a ....horse.

    Can you message me a link please?. I have a small collection of metal horses!
    He's got a cute eye and a sea horse type mouth. Maybe meant to be an Arab with a dished face like that.
