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
i am getting old this etruscan roman style
Search Dhokra lost wax casting for more information.
