The Karabakh horse is one of Azerbaijan’s national symbols. Graceful, sure-footed, and hardy, it embodies the value of the country’s traditions and its aspiration to continue advancing. Our artists have taken inspiration from these magnificent specimens and recreated them in porcelain, paying meticulous attention to the finer details. From the well-defined expressive head, the straight profile, and vivid intelligent eyes, all its anatomical features have been masterfully sculpted. Following the ancient tradition in Azerbaijan the horse’s back is covered by a Karabakh carpet with its famous unique distinctive patterns. A combination of metallic reds, greens, blues, whites, and gold was chosen to recreate their coloring. The saddle, etched by hand with a delicate floral design, is decorated with golden luster, and to capture the authentic color of these sorrel horses, a dark copper brown enamel was created especially.
