This sturdy Red Oak rocking horse is offered in three
classic American hardwoods, Black Walnut, Black Cherry or
Red Oak. All offer the durability of very hard and strong
wood, and each has its own unique beauty. Measuring 24
inches high it is sized for the 1 year old beginner through
the 5 year old trick rider. Joints are fastened with Hickory
dowels glued into bored holes, giving the rocking horse a
300 pound capacity. This over-capacity will ensure
generations of use. All edges are rounded over and carefully
sanded. Children begin rocking at about 10-14 months old and
lose interest at the time they outgrow the horse when 5-6
years old. Fine Woodworking magazine included my
horse in its collection of outstanding woodwork in America.
24 inches high and 31 inches long.
I want my toys to be an alternative to the throw-away aspects of life today.
