We
are proud to show you one of our carousel horses.
The former owners decided in 2003 to put him on
rockers as a large rocking horse (1.55m).
This bow has a length of 2.00m.
They had an unique present under their Christmas
tree!
Due
to personal reasons from the former owners we had
the opportunity to buy this famous horse, our 'mascot',
back.
He will get an 'up-date' and will be restyled.
For the making of Napoleon we were
inspirered by the horse of Napoleon and the
Lippizaner Stallions of the Spanisch Riding
school in Austria.Ofcourse is everything on this
horse custom- and handmade.
For our horses we use always an ancient oil-technique
(see the details below at 'paintwork' )
This horse got 11 layers of 'glacis' which gives
him this wonderfull deep grey color.
The velvet saddle is completely hand sewed.
87 antique (glas) pearls from 1920 give this
saddle even more a royal appaerance.
The 47 embroidery patterns are made of sewing
silk.
The bridle has our solid brass,
double reining bit. The tack is also -as
everything on this horse- coming from our hand
and therefore stamped with our brand and the
registration number of the horse.
This is the only one world-wide.................
We received a lot of emails. This is one of them:
"Hello - Your carousel horse is more
than I can afford. But I just wanted to
tell you that your carousel horse is the most
beautiful horse I have ever seen and that your
craftsmanship is amazing. It is a pleasure
to know that such beautiful workmanship exists as
well as such a beautiful carousel horse".
NOTE: At this moment we are
making a new different horse in the same historic
athmosphere.

this unique, realistic animal..
