Wedding Gifts for Horse Loving Couples

June 25, 2013 by Alison Greene Leave a Comment

NPC0002Spring wedding season is officially here, and you know what that means: the search for the perfect wedding gift for horse loving couples is on! When two great people join their lives together, you want to commemorate the occasion with a truly spectacular gift.

This Solid Sterling Silver Horseshoe Paperweight surely fits the bill. Individually created by our master silversmith, this lovely horseshoe is 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ – the perfect size for display in any home. Engraved with the couple’s name and the date of their wedding, it’s a beautiful reminder of one of the best days of their lives!

(What’s that? We have a suggestion from the barn? Oh, yes. I see. The horses recommend that you buy the newlyweds grain. Lots and lots of grain. That’s clearly what they’re hoping for!)

What do you get the couple who has everything? When young couples get married, the gift giving is pretty easy – after all, they need EVERYTHING. But when people find their sweetheart a little later in life, chances are that they may already have a fairly complete household – or two!

That’s when it’s time for artwork. There’s never too much art in someone’s life, and fine art is the type of thing that one seldom buys for themselves yet is always appreciated. That’s why these McClelland Barclay Horsehead Bookends make an amazing wedding gift.

McClelland Barclay was quite a character, an American Renaissance man. A prolific artist, Barclay did commercial illustration, amazing sculptures, and even designed camouflage patterns for WW2 aircraft. At 52 years old, he volunteered to fight for his country, and tragically, this is when he lost his life.

There’s only so much of Barclay’s work available in the marketplace today. That’s why these Horsehead Bookends will be so appealing to the collector of fine American art. A truly one of a kind gift that will delight your favorite couple on their wedding day.

About Alison Greene

Show Stable Artisans, The Equestrian Jeweler, was started in 1994 by 2 friends who had a passion for horses and jewelry- and who wanted to share the passion with others. They sought out the best artisans who created the finest pieces of equestrian jewelry -beautiful and keepsake pieces that reflected the equestrian lifestyle.

We chose the name for our blog for 2 reasons. The first reason is because we hope to “spotlight” the relevant trends, horse jewelry and information that will be of interest to you. The second reason we chose the name is to honor the most wonderful horse I have ever had- In the Spotlight, the chestnut horse pictured throughout this blog. She was an unbelievable show horse, a loving companion and my horse of a lifetime!
