Rare Antique Wooden Rocking Horse | Circa 1895–1915
A beautiful and authentic antique wooden rocking horse dating from the Late 19th / Early 20th Century (circa 1895–1915).
This
exceptional piece retains its original hand-painted finish, expressive
glass eyes, original horsehair tail, aged leather saddle and over a
century of authentic wear. The untouched patina gives the horse
remarkable character that cannot be reproduced.

of historic decorative objects.
