890-1 - Daniel Muller - $10,500
A circa 1912 prancer exhibiting the elegance and refinement of a Daniel Muller carving. The body of the dainty horse with the sensitive face and cascading deeply carved mane has been restored with walnut stain to reveal the exceptional condition and warmth of the natural wood. Simple trappings with incised borders painted in a subdued complementary palette of browns, golds and greens include an "English" saddle with underblanket and a bifurcated breastband. Glass eyes, natural horsehair tail, stirrup hangers, rein rings, stand with antique brass. 51 long x 53 high x 37 chest to rump.
