AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique wooden carousel horse – circa 1900 imported from France with initials AV

Beautiful hand-carved linden wood carousel horse, presumably originating from a French carousel from the early 20th century (circa 1880–1920). Original multicolored paint, visible craquelure, authentic leather saddle with metal nails, and a tail made of real hair. Lovely patina and characteristic signs of use. The attachment holes under the hooves and near the reins clearly indicate its original use on a carousel.

Dimensions: 78 cm high x 95 cm wide x 19 cm deep
• Weight: approx. 10 kg

This unique object is a rare find for enthusiasts of antiques, vintage decoration, or collectors of nostalgic carousel pieces.

Due to its size, regular mail shipment is not possible.

Shipping
In the Netherlands, it may be delivered by our regular carrier. After the auction, contact will be made with you to arrange an appointment.

For Europe, the horse is very carefully packed on a pallet with bubble wrap, foam, and cardboard, and then shipped insured with a specialized carrier. Outside Europe or to islands, the displayed shipping price may be insufficient. In that case, you will receive a revised quote after the auction. Cancellation is, of course, free of charge in that case if you do not agree. Thank you for your understanding.

Please note: The object shows authentic signs of age and use, appropriate to its age and function. See the photos for a complete picture of the condition.
