19th Century American Folk Art Rocking Horse
Located in Lancaster, PA
A charming and expressive 19th-century carved wooden rocking horse, retaining an appealing early painted surface with beautifully worn patina.

The horse sits on its original bentwood rockers, joined by hand-forged nails and wooden pegs, with traces of old surface wear that speak to its long life and authenticity. The saddle form and tail are carved integral to the body, and the expressive head retains its original painted bridle details and wide-eyed character.
