    Does anyone know any info or value on this brass horse toy? It has 2 people on it which I've read may be Indian but unsure.
    As far as I know, it came from Egypt.

      this is a temple toy from india from origen radjastan and utar pradesh, the spread is now much wider,
      Dont misunderstand the word temple toy, 2 purposes Temple Toys" were figurines made as offerings to gods in the temples of India

      Children often found these offerings and use them as toys, hence the name "temple toys, what happened is parents were embarresed by the loudlyness of children and the mayem of children
      so they allowed the children to play with the offering toys to keep them silent

      actually it is the etruscan style and steal
      i think this is brass and they changed a wheel

      the value is very little
