This is a favourite. Two types of timber were used in making this piece. The central part is from a garden gazebo roof support timber and the frame is from left over timber from a garden shed project's internal structure. As usual some of the blemishes are left uncovered to relay the life history of the material.
The horse carving is filled with coloured resin.
