About the Item

A charming and exquisitely crafted Mid-Century style standing children's rocking horse, beautifully evoking the iconic natural material aesthetic of acclaimed Italian designer Franco Albini. This piece showcases the distinctive use of bamboo, a signature element of 1960s Italian design that embraced organic forms and artisanal techniques. Its construction features elegant, hand-bent curves and sculptural lines that create a light, airy presence while ensuring sturdy, functional support. More than just a functional vintage toy, this rocking horse serves as a whimsical and artful decorative accent, perfect for adding a touch of playful sophistication to a nursery, child's room, or even a living area as a unique conversation piece. Reflecting Albini's masterly ability to combine modern principles with traditional craft, it stands as a testament to the era's innovative approach to design for children. In original condition with visible wear consistent with age and use. Shown with a baby bamboo chair (please inquire), listed separately.
