Full description

Made to order, hand crafted Small Victorian 'Heirloom' Rocking Horse.

Suitable for ages 4 to 10 years old.

2 Feet, 8 Inches Tall

2 Feet, 8 Inches Long

6 Inches Wide

Prices are negotiable and dependent on choice of wood for larger sizes of Rocking Horses (e.g., Medium - circa £2000, or Large - circa £2500).

As a member of the Guild of Rocking Horse Makers, I will be more than please to discuss custom crafting this Victorian Style Rocking Horse in a variety of woods as per customer requirements (e.g., Oak, Walnut, Poplar, Sepele, etc.).

Real Horsehair is used for the Mane and Tail and all leatherwork (i.e., Saddle and Tack) is undertaken by me.

Note: While the Horse is being constructed, the customer is invited to write a special secret message addressed to the person they are gifting the Rocking horse to (e.g., Daughter, Son, Grand Daughter, Grand Son, etc.). The message is then secreted into the core of the Horse while it is being crafted, never more to be seen or read, unless the Rocking Horse is broken open, which hopefully will never happen. Each Rocking Horse is designed to be handed down to become a true Family Heirloom.

Designed by Ronald McMinn in Papa's yankee workshop (near leeds castle), rural kent
