Description
The Nuzzling Bay Horse Heads is a 36.7cm-wide figurine depicting two horse heads meeting nose-to-nose, cast in polyresin with a distressed bronze finish over a rough-textured surface. The sculpture sits on two vertical metal rods mounted into a matt black rectangular plinth, raising the heads approximately 30cm above the surface they rest on. The combined weight of 3.4kg gives the piece stability without requiring wall mounting.
Designed for mantelpieces, console tables, and low bookcases in living rooms, hallways and home offices, the sculpture works as a standalone decorative object rather than functional lighting or storage. The 15.4cm depth means it fits comfortably on shelves 20cm deep or wider without overhanging. The antique bronze finish shows variation between darker recesses in the mane texture and lighter highlights on the cheekbones and muzzle planes, replicating the patina of aged cast metal.
Each horse head shows mane detailing with individual locks carved into the surface, and the facial muscle structure gives definition to the cheeks, jawline and forehead. The nuzzling pose positions the two heads touching at the muzzle, angled slightly towards each other. The rough texture and bronze finish suit interiors with warm metal accents, exposed wood furniture, and neutral or earth-toned colour schemes common in country house, equestrian and contemporary rustic schemes.

Frequently Asked
What is polyresin, and is it durable?
Polyresin is a composite material mixing resin with powdered stone or metal for weight and texture. It is more durable than plaster and lighter than solid cast metal, making it suitable for decorative sculpture. The finish is resistant to chipping under normal handling but should not be dropped or knocked hard.
How is the bronze finish applied?
The antique bronze finish is applied during manufacturing as a coating over the polyresin base, then distressed to create darker and lighter areas that replicate natural metal patina. The finish is not actual bronze metal but a painted effect.
Can it be displayed outdoors?
No. Polyresin is designed for indoor display only. Exposure to rain, frost and UV light will degrade the material and finish over time.
How is it cleaned?
Wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust. For more stubborn marks, use a barely-damp cloth with plain water. Avoid household cleaners, polishes, solvents or abrasive cloths that may damage the bronze finish.
