Antique Rocking Horse in Reinforced Fabric & Wood, Late 19th Century

A sculptural antique rocking horse, crafted in reinforced fabric over a wooden frame, dating to the late 19th century.

With its elegant proportions and elongated form, the piece reads less as a toy and more as an object of presence. The lacquered surface carries a rich, timeworn patina, revealing decades of handling and age, while the natural hair mane and tail retain their original character.

Marks of time are visible, including surface wear and an old repair along the back, which only deepen its sense of history and individuality. It stands today as a decorative piece, appreciated for its form, materiality, and atmosphere rather than function.

Placed within an interior, it becomes a focal pointsomething between folk sculpture and memory object, equally at home in a refined salon or a layered, personal space.
