[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 3258615, member: 8267"]Original Tang Dynasty horses were made of terracotta, not wood, and date to AD 618-906. [URL]https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/_chinese-tang-dynasty-sancai-glazed-horse-882a?cmp=bynw_HME_gg_sea_ord___en__com__pdp_gshop_shp__&gclid=CjwKCAiAz4b_BRBbEiwA5XlVVvD9KzBw_BIT8a6nBMEMWX0C1FHI7GOpl0HLIfMt3AY7BlKAIkzw5RoCU2MQAvD_BwE[/URL] You got your wooden version for a good price. But there seem to be quite a few similar carved wooden Tang-style horses out there. All are estimated to date between 1850-1950, although no one offers any solid evidence for their dating. They probably were, and perhaps still are, popular decorative export products. The Chinese are very good at making all types of objects in earlier styles, and making them look deceptively old.
