Horse of Swift Fortune — 2026 Fire Horse Ceramic Figurine
Created for 2026—the first Fire Horse year in sixty years—this handcrafted glazed-ceramic figurine pairs the horse, a lasting symbol of momentum, with a coin-shaped roundel behind its saddle. Together, the two forms carry a wish for prosperity to arrive swiftly, making it a meaningful gift for a new venture, an important milestone, or someone entering a new chapter.
Rounded contours, a gently lowered head and modeled tack give the horse a grounded sculptural presence. Imperial Gold mineral glaze gathers around the mane and saddle, revealing fine natural crackle and subtle variations from the kiln.
Handcrafted in Mentougou, Beijing, within the only surviving kiln lineage of a 760-year imperial ceramic tradition. Presented in a patterned gift box and offered only during the Year of the Fire Horse, February 17, 2026–February 5, 2027.
