Inspired by 18th century Continental paintings depicting the Noble Horse of Royalty, Julie Wear presents high spirited horses caparisoned in regal trappings, with ornamental saddles and bridles and adorned with tassels; she translates them into a highly sophisticated design that makes a bold statement on any table. Dramatic black ground accented with gold, including hand painted burnished gold cup handles enhances the splendor of the magnificent Imperial Horse.
