Item Description
A finely detailed early 20th century sculpture of Buraq, a human-headed horse chimera. The figure displays a carved bone face with finely etched hair adorned with a crown. The chest and upper back are etched with a diamond border and curved flourishes, connecting to a dark wood equine body. The arms flare out in large wings, detailed with flowing lines. The tail follows suit with a curved rectangular piece of bone with vining foliate etched designs. Buraq stands on a dark wood platform with pierced and carved rails, with flat square bone finials decorating the corners. The platform rests on stout square feet.
Condition: Displays well with wear commensurate with age. Overall surface scratches, especially on the horse legs. Discoloration and scattered finish wear. Adhesive residue from a past repair on one of the wings.
