We have been restoring both our own and clients' high quality pieces of antique furniture for almost 30 years.
Some 15 years ago we restored our first rocking horse and rapidly became fascinated by these delightful creatures which charm both children and adults. So much so that we now concentrate exclusively on restoring and making these highly decorative heirlooms, which are at home anywhere in the house, not just in the nursery.
Given our antiques background and being perfectionists, we aim to reproduce faithfully the special character achieved by the original Victorian and Edwardian craftsmen. Unlike many modern rocking horse makers, we do not attempt to impose our own personality upon our rocking horses, preferring instead to continue the delightful styles developed by the old makers. For this reason we use exact patterns taken from the very best examples of antique rocking horses, which we feel cannot be improved upon.
