This fabulous Victorian style rocking horse is in wonderful condition and has been made by a master craftsman. It has been weighted so that it barely needs a touch for it to rock and is beautifully designed with a hand hold for a small child to grasp for stability. It will make a great Christmas or birthday present and will look stunning in a larger child’s nursery.
– Almost new condition, barely used.
– Brass plate on the base showing that it was made by ‘Shire Classics’ of Lincoln, England, in 1995.
– Glass eyes.
– Leather saddle and leather covered double horn, for a child to grasp when rocking.
– Brass stirrups.
– Horsehair mane and tail.
– Slatted base with weights beneath to provide a beautifully balanced rock.
In excellent condition showing very little wear or use.
