Stained Oak Rocking Horse

A piece of traditional English oak has great natural beauty. After being carved, planed, limed, beeswaxed and polished, it is transformed into an elegant rocking horse. Note the muscle definition in the neck of this animal.

New or old, rocking horses are appreciating assets, and like any work of art are worth more when their provenance is clearly displayed. Every single horse that leaves the workshop is marked with a brass plaque denoting the name of the firm, the year of manufacture and the number of the horse. As your horse gets older and assumes the patina of age, this plaque will further increase the value.
