A handsome large carved wooden rocking horse by J. R. Smith of Liverpool on its original stand with turned pillars and the head slightly tilted. The horse has been sensitively restored retaining much of its original paint and brass studs; we used old horse tack for the stirrup leathers and harness.
J. R. Smith rocking horses are known for their extra detailed carving and are similar in quality to horses by Ayres and Lines.
The brass brackets, the back turned pillar and the mane and tail hair are replacements.
