This striking framed art print, Stable of Champions, captures the quiet power and dignity of the equestrian world through the skilled hand of Richard Newton Jr., an artist celebrated for his refined animal and sporting scenes. The composition draws the viewer into the calm interior of a stable, where several horses stand at rest—each rendered with careful attention to posture, muscle, and expression. A dark horse anchors the foreground, while subtle details such as tack, folded blankets, and a small white dog add warmth and narrative depth. The scene feels lived-in and authentic, reflecting a time when horsemanship was as much a way of life as a sport. Presented in a substantial, museum-style custom frame with layered matting, this piece was clearly framed with long-term display in mind. The framing alone represents significant value, offering both visual presence and protection for the artwork. The print itself is well-preserved, with colors that remain rich and balanced, making it suitable for display in a study, office, den, or equestrian-themed space. This is not a decorative afterthought—it is a thoughtfully presented work that carries presence, craftsmanship, and classic appeal. Whether you are drawn to equestrian art, traditional sporting scenes, or simply well-framed vintage artwork, this piece delivers lasting character.

This lidded decorative ginger jar features a richly colored, multi-panel design with a textured teal ground, cobalt blue accents, and deep magenta banding.

The domed lid repeats the bold panel design and sits neatly within the collar, completing the traditional silhouette. The surface decoration incorporates dimensional gold trim consistent with moriage-style embellishment, adding depth and visual texture to the hand-applied design.

View item video here: https://youtube.com/shorts/oycHY3HwfLU?feature=share A scene that twinkles like fresh snow: Winnie-the-Pooh, in a velvet-red Santa cap, balances a stack of gleaming gifts while riding ever-faithful Eeyore past a sparkling Christmas tree. This framed glitter-relief artwork measures 17" x 17" and delivers joyous color, raised texture, and light-catching shimmer from every angle. The hand-applied glitter outlines and filled fields create a tactile, embossed effect—gold on the star and bows, emerald on Eeyore’s scarf, berry reds along the ribboned border—so the image feels alive when your room lighting shifts. The piece arrives in a natural wood frame with a sawtooth hanger on the back for easy, ready-to-hang display. Condition is great—colors are vivid, the surface is bright and festive, and the frame presents cleanly—making it an instant statement over a mantel, in a playroom, or as cheerful seasonal décor in an entryway or nursery. Fans of Hundred Acre Wood will love the authentic character expressions: Pooh’s soft smile of giving, Eeyore’s endearing patience, and the quiet snowfall that turns the whole moment into holiday magic. Place it where lights can dance across the surface and you’ll get that cinematic sparkle we all chase in December—the glimmer that says wonder is still possible. This is heart-warming, family-friendly art that photographs beautifully for your holiday wall, gallery grid, or seasonal vignette. Discovered by Treasures of Bako — Have we got a gem for you!
