Magnum Horse Head – Optical

The Magnum Horse Head is the defining statement of Baci Milano's Optical collection — a large-scale polyresin horse head sculpture that commands any interior with the discipline of chess and the intelligence of op-art. Available in two mirror colorways, black-dominant or white-dominant, it brings the sharp geometry of Italian design thinking to spaces built for visual impact.

Optical works from a single radical premise: two colors are enough. The collection's geometric patterns wrap the sculpted Knight silhouette, transforming a two-dimensional op-art grid into something that reads differently from every angle. Front-on, the pattern is rigorous; from the side, it shifts — much like the layers that reveal themselves in a chess game the longer you study it. Designed at Casa Baci in Milan, it lives somewhere between sculpture, board game, and a Bridget Riley canvas.

In Dubai interiors shaped by equestrian culture and a love of bold contemporary art, the Magnum Horse Head finds its place naturally — on an entryway console in a Gulf villa, anchoring a design-forward office, or punctuating the salon of a superyacht where black-and-white sculpture speaks its own design language.

Pair the black-dominant and white-dominant Magnum pieces as oversized bookends and the effect is a chess match frozen mid-game — a commanding vignette that anchors any shelf or console with purpose.
