A naturalistic model of a recumbent horse. The mane of the horse is carved with careful consideration and the long face is imbued with a lot of character, enhanced by the eyes inlaid in dark horn. The wood is of a very good color, accentuated, slightly stained and darkened in some areas. Good and irregular himotoshi on the underside. Unsigned but similar examples exist by Minkoku.
