Most Lipizzans measure between 14.2 and 15.2 hands. However, horses bred that are closer to the original carriage-horse type are taller, approaching 16.1 hands. Lipizzans have a long head, with a straight or slightly convex profile. The jaw is deep, the ears small, the eyes large and expressive and the nostrils flared. They have a neck that is sturdy, yet arched and withers that are low, muscular and broad. They are a Baroque-type horse, with a wide, deep chest, broad croup and muscular shoulder. The tail is carried high and well set. The legs are well-muscled and strong, with broad joints and well-defined tendons. The feet tend to be small, but are tough.
Aside from the rare solid-colored horse (usually bay or black), most Lipizzans are grey. Like all grey horses, they have black skin, dark eyes, and as adult horses, a white hair coat. Grey horses, including Lipizzans, are born dark—usually bay or black—and become lighter each year as the greying process takes place, with the process being complete at between 6 and 10 years of age.
