EXCLUSIVE
MINIATURES OF OUR ROCKING- AND CAROUSEL HORSES
FOR THE DISCERNING COLLECTOR.
This
page of our website is made for those who want to have, collect
or give something unique and exclusive.
They would, for example- suit a miniature enthusiast who is looking
for something more unique for their collection.
The miniature horses are are made in a 12th scale (12 inches = 1
inch )
This scale is the typical miniature scale which is used for doll
houses.
(Note: The horse above isn't a doll house miniature but a "mini"horse
with a height of approx. 56cm/22,5 inches. Also visible at our page
'new'))
Our horses are finished to a very high standard and each is individually
hand made to the highest specification.
They have hand painted eyes, which contributes to their unique character.
The
first of our unique rocking horses in 'doll house'miniature is our
rocking horse 'Solist'.
(see rocking horses: Solist)
He is made 1/12th scale (doll's house
standard scale), which is basically 1 inch for each foot (12
inches) of the real size. The approx size of
Solist in miniature is 125mm
x 95 mm.
The stirrups are made of solid silver....
Consequently,
a great deal of time is taken to achieve this highest possible standard
and this quality is reflected in the price.
We've
tried to capture the artistic quality of the miniature below, but
this seems impossible.
