About the Item

With her mouth open in excitement, with her eyes glowing with enthusiasm, with her sleek body depicted in motion — this vintage rocking pony hand-carved in Scandinavia circa 1900 radiates the bouncy spirit of childhood dreams. The weathered ashen patina brightens the surface with cheerful patchy patterns, punctuating smooth curves of the wooden musculature of her athletic legs attached to the stout rocking base. The iron ring of the horse bit brings a realistic detail to the presence of this whimsical creature.

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 elongated, stylized form is hand-carved with exaggerated features—arched neck, sculpted ears, and a deeply carved mane—giving the piece a wonderfully naïve and folky presence. Original paint remains visible throughout in muted tones of black, green, red, and cream, softened by generations of use and natural age. 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. This is a particularly evocative example of early children’s folk art...
