It was listed by Colin Brand Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Colin Brand Antiques has dated this piece to the 1910s.
The Lines family made rocking horses for almost a century. They are very important makers who produced first class rocking horses and many novel designs.
The family business split and reformed over the years and traded with the names G & J Lines, G & J Lines Ltd, Lines Brothers Ltd, Triangtois and Tri-ang.
The smaller horses 'Sportiboy' typically did not have carved teeth.
The horse could be removed from the stand, making it a fabulous shop window display piece or equally a charming home decoration item.
A tail and mane can be supplied at no extra cost, I have not attached them as I like its original rustic look.
