Tanjore Horse & Rider Doll – Hand-Painted Traditional Figurine
€49,95
A Royal Procession, Frozen in Time
This magnificent Tanjore Horse & Rider Doll captures the grandeur of South Indian royal tradition — a noble figure seated atop a beautifully adorned horse, both hand-painted and embellished with gold in the centuries-old Thanjavur style.
The rider is dressed in a rich red royal attire with intricate gold jewellery, a traditional crown, and expressive hand-painted features. The horse is decorated with elaborate ceremonial trappings — layered gold borders, colourful tassels, and a vibrant yellow pleated base that gives the piece its signature Tanjore sway.
