Golden Mane Cavallo By Domenico Pinto

$1,290.00

11 1/4” W x 13” H x 3 1/2”D

Domenico Pinto, "Il Professore" of Grottaglie, presents a majestic interpretation of tradition in this ceramic sculpture of a cavallo– a horse, reimagined through a contemporary lens. Pinto’s distinct style is evident in this piece, as he masterfully blends traditional Apulian ceramic techniques with innovative design elements. This cavallo features stylized form and intricate decorative details, making it a striking visual statement. Pinto creates a piece that feels both grounded in history and strikingly modern. In place of a traditional saddle, a crest of sculpted ocean waves cascades down the horse’s back, hinting at a connection to Neptune, god of the sea. Touches of 24kt gold highlight the ornamental bridle and the tips of the horse’s upright mane, adding a touch of regal elegance.

From his workshop in the historic ceramics district, Pinto’s work reveals a mastery of technique and a sophisticated understanding of form. Note the detailed patterns, the ceramic ruffles that add an ornamental touch. This piece, signed by the artist, embodies a modern take on regional craftsmanship. Collectors and designers alike will appreciate Pinto’s unique ability to imbue traditional forms with a fresh, contemporary aesthetic. His pieces are found in private collections, as well as the prestigious collections of Dolce & Gabbana and the Vatican.
