Rocking horse

[2] From the 19th century onward, rocking horses became more commonly considered as child's toy.

Mostly built by hobby woodcrafters, and ranging from relatively crude to finely ornamented and the toys of future kings, it was not until the late 19th century that the production became industrialised.

This rocking horse was built in 2000 and is 7 feet 8 inches (234 cm) tall and weighs 1,200 pounds (680 kg).

It can be seen at renaissance faires, faerie festivals, and at private parties and events where up to 3 adults or 4-5 children can ride it together at one time.

According to Les and Katlinel, the youngest rider has been six weeks old and the oldest, 94 years.
