Description from the seller

This authentic antique horse collar is a beautiful piece of historical harness with a lot of character. Fully constructed from a wooden core, sturdy leather covering, and metal hames, and finished with original straps and chain. An honest, well-used object that clearly served for many years.

The collar features a thick, padded inner lining for comfort and pressure distribution, while the outer side is nicely dark patinated by age and use. The metal parts show natural oxidation and give the whole piece that typical rural look that collectors and interior designers seek.

Given the dimensions (approx. 53 × 27 × 15 cm) it was a model intended for a smaller horse or pony — ideal as a decorative piece that isn’t too bulky but still has presence.

The condition is original and unrestored, with clear signs of use and discoloration appropriate to its age. Structurally sound. Perfect as wall decoration, in a farmhouse, loft, studio, cafe, man cave, or as a collector’s item for lovers of old agricultural equipment and horse harness.

A characterful and authentic piece with soul — beautiful as a statement object or as a unique decorative accent.
