I have never seen a rocking horse this detailed. I could not identify the
maker, but it is carved in the style and pose of antique carousel horses, and
may have originally been part of one such carnival ride.
A hand carved and carousel quality rocking horse. Adorned with carved
rosettes, rose garlands and mane bow. Brass tacked saddle and woven reins.
Constructed from solid wood and hand painted a creamy white with pink, blue,
purple, green and gold flourishes. Very intricate. Sturdy and ready to ride. As
photos show this item is in very good vintage condition. As expected. age and
use has worn some of the paint, revealed slight wood joinery seams and
discolored the rope reins. The rocking horse is roughly 122cm in length (4
feet), 35cm deep and 85cm in height.
Shipping will be free on this piece. If you have any question or require
addition photos please let me know. I hope to have a video up in the coming
week.
A bit about me and my shop... I am a thrift store and auction hound, living on
a small gulf island on Canada's west coast. I offer an eclectic range of rare
and desirable vintage and antique items.
All of the items I sell have been used or displayed. As such some items may
have imperfection or flaws, which I will always try to detail in the
description or with photographs. If you have any questions regarding and item's
condition or just require more details on a piece, please feel free to contact
me. As a new vendor on this site I am always looking for ways to ensure
customers can trust the quality and authenticity of each item I offer. Customer
interaction is appreciated.
