Nice representation !~
He's a lovely horse- his galloping pose reminds me of something medieval? Maybe I've seen a picture of knights astride horses like this and in fact in the thumbnail I actually thought he had a little knight sitting on his back like so but he's very nice and I love the green stones on him too!
Cute horse! We recently visited a carousel in Williamsburg, it is one of the few remaining wooden ones that still exist.
Many thanks for the thoughtful love all

Thanks so much Phil for the great comment, Napier did do a very nice job on this carousel horse, and I tried to pose the piece so it would show the up & down motion
Eileen thank you as always for such lovely compliments, I really adore the Napier Starlight series and think I have the whole set now including a baby elephant and seal with ball, they all have these dense rhinestones that make them super sparkly, & very festive at the holidays
Yes Lauren you are totally on target, this is styled like a jousting horse from medieval times! That could well be a knight's pole in the middle of its back. Thank you so, so much for your wonderful vision and excellent comment & compliments
Thank you MrsT for the sweet praise, I am so happy for you seeing the carousel in Williamsburg that must have been so exciting, I went there on vacation as a girl but do not think we visited that one (there was alot to see). Here in NY they have restored a couple beauties, one in Brooklyn and one in a mall on Long Island, I love those
Thank you Michael for the thoughtful love I am glad you liked this horse
Thanks Penny for the love I'm very grateful & glad you liked this Napier horse
Many thanks for the love six-0-one, it is truly gratefully appreciated & very glad you liked this Napier horse
