Antique Wooden Horse on Wheels, Scandinavian – Painted Red

A bold flash of folk tradition in vivid red, this antique wooden horse carries with it the spirit of a bygone childhood. Hand-carved and mounted on early wooden wheels, the horse’s worn patina, where paint has faded and time has gently chipped away—reveals layers of use and affection. The form is simple yet noble, with traces of black on hooves and a tail carved with quiet grace.

Equally charming as a decorative object or part of a children's room tableau, it brings rustic warmth and timeless character to any setting. Whether perched atop a console or nestled in a bookshelf, this little steed reminds us of the power of play and the passage of time.
