A maple leaf surrounds the alert horse head. The cherry wood from which the horse and leaf, was cut from, has had a lot of light exposure and has taken on that rich dark patina for which cherry wood is famous. It was scroll sawn and mounted on a walnut wood backer. It has a saw tooth hanger for easy mounting on a wall.
The piece measures 7" wide and is 7" high. Both the cherry and the walnut measure about 1/4" each. It is finished in a Danish oil wood finish to show off the beauty of the piece.
