Giddyup!
This week it's all about "The Race That Stops A Nation" (quite literally!) here in Australia and so, as a tribute to things equine, today I thought I'd share some rather amazing contemporary rocking horses.
They can be colourful in plastic -

or look beautiful in timber -

And whether they are more literal -
 |
| Blue Badger |
 |
| furnications |
sculptural -
 |
| If It's Hip, It's Here |
 |
| designwagen |
or abstract -
 |
| The Alternative Consumer |
in appearance, I am sure that they would make a great talking point in anyone's home.
Now I know that I am usually a girl who prefers her things vintage but I have to admit that I am a little smitten with these and I hope you like them too!
Happy, happy Wednesday,

Hello Stephie:
ReplyDeleteWe have always wanted a dolls' house and a rocking horse. The dolls' house we now have, and are so enjoying acquiring furniture [but definitely not dolls] for it and now this wonderful post of yours has rekindled desire for the rocking horse. Oh dear!!
What a fun roundup! I love the horses and the chance to see a normally vintage item in such modern and whimsical designs. I think the black horse is the best!
ReplyDeleteHi Dear Stephie : Thanks for your lovely comments in my blog. Wow many designs about horses! all are amazing, but if I had to choose a design would furnications because it reminds me of my childhood. I hope that you have a beautiful and sweet week near to your family.
ReplyDeleteA big hug
