About the Item

This 1900s French wooden rocking horse is a striking decorative piece that showcases the charm and craftsmanship of early children’s toys. The sculpted horse features an expressive carved form with gracefully extended legs and a subtly arched neck, resting on a traditional wooden swing-stand base. Its weathered, timeworn surface reveals layers of original paint and patina, giving the figure an evocative, antique character. The sturdy wooden frame below retains its rustic finish and authentic joinery, adding to the historical appeal. Both sculptural and nostalgic, this rocking horse serves as a captivating statement in entryways, playrooms, or eclectic interior displays, bringing a sense of whimsy and French vintage charm to any space.
