This is a mid-to-late 19th century hand-carved folk art wooden horse, likely of Scandinavian or New England origin.
It is a child's toy, often originally a pull-toy with wheels, that is now a decorative item.
The piece features naive simplicity and expressive form, with a heavily worn, chalky white patina from its original paint.
It is a desirable antique, often considered a sculptural or statement piece due to its age and unique character.
We will connect on shipping if needed as it should be processionally packed and ii will need to get estimates.
