The Rocking Horse Place/Palomino Rocking Horses

This small rocking horse on a bow rocker certainly shows up the grain in its dark Oak stain with a wax finish.

Want to see some horses and other rocking animals then come to the Home and Lifestyle Show in Whanganui on the weekend of 9th & 10th August 2025. Come and talk to me and hear all the options available to create a family heirloom or just something to fully enjoy by all the family. Yes I have horses for all ages from infants to adults, pop along and have a chat.
Do you have an old Rocking Horse in need of some TLC and want to challenge yourself to do a restoration then I can help with that also, from glass eyes, to horse hair in a variety of colours to saddles, bridles and stands.
Alternatively I can do the restoration for you, come and have a chat.

I would like you to meet this little fella who has recently joined the stables at The Rocking Horse Place. This was a kind of commission for a customer who's daughter loved Giraffes. I already have a Giraffe but he is bigger, far too big for a 18mth child. So I drew up a baby giraffe based on a small rocking horse. It was great creating him (or her) and I did not want to let him go. He was attached to a bow rocker but could be put on a swing rocker. Not 100% happy with the tail, but will work on that for the next one. The final addition was the eyelashes which just added that little bit extra cuteness.
