This is wonderful - sets the scene and tone, makes the reader think just enough to be satisfying.
Being a city kid, my first image was an ox yoke, but a horse yoke (on miniimal research) is a sort of spar rather than the big, heay ox-borne thing. Doesn't really matter: the gold-painted yoke for going into town to the sound of the fiddle is magic.
His yoke was golden
and his fiddle was light.
