Tang Dynasty Horse available @ Time’s Tin Cup !
Tang Dynasty horses are iconic symbols of Chinese art and history, representing power, prosperity, and cultural exchange during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). These figurines were often included in tombs to provide comfort and status to the deceased in the afterlife. The horses were highly valued for their role in trade, warfare, and imperial ceremonies.
These ceramic figures are renowned for their vibrant glazes, detailed craftsmanship, and dynamic poses, reflecting the cosmopolitan nature of the Tang Dynasty. The ‘sancai’ (three-color) glaze technique, featuring combinations of amber, green, and cream, is particularly characteristic. Today, authentic Tang Dynasty horses are highly sought after by collectors and museums worldwide, prized for their historical significance and artistic merit.
