Our Seahorse is a wonderfully detailed sculpture of an ocean going seahorse. A charming decorative object that is also a great conversation starter. The sculpture is a bit over 2 feet in height and can be placed tabletop or on the ground or floor. Use inside or outside on a porch on patio side table or as a centerpiece. This sculpture is substantial weighing in at 60 pounds and is perfect outside by the swimming pool with a small likelihood of tipping or being blown over. This sculpt is even better when matched with our one of our other nature themed planters and sculptures (see below) and is a natural fit in any beach house decor environment. As per Wikipedia: A seahorse (also written sea-horse and sea horse) is any of 46 species of small marine bony fish in the genus Hippocampus. "Hippocampus" comes from the Ancient Greek hipp—kampos (ἱ¹¹όκαμ¹ος), itself from h’ppos (ἵ¹¹ος) meaning "horse" and k‡mpos (κάμ¹ος) meaning "sea monster" or "sea animal". Having a head and neck suggestive of a horse, seahorses also feature segmented bony armour, an upright posture and a curled prehensile tail. Seahorses are mainly found in shallow tropical and temperate salt water throughout the world, from about 45¡S to 45¡N.[8] They live in sheltered areas such as seagrass beds, estuaries, coral reefs, and mangroves This distinctive sculpture is meticulously hand cast and hand finished in our USA foundry in high density cast stone.
