This is today's find at SA boutique shop for $2.50. This is came in the day as the Antique Vase I posted yesterday. He is so cute and maybe missing part of his tail. HELP Can anyone tell me anything..he is super heavy...brass? He measures 3.25 x 3.50 ... he weighs 224.45 grams...WOW!
It's unique and pretty.
Thoscahaba, thank you...I saw it yesterday when I picked up the vase. I almost got it..and put it down thinking if its meant for me. It would still be there today. And it was...:))
Think brass. Not looking caste iron. Cool!
AmberRose, thank you...how old do you think it is?
50s to now???
Amber, XOXO for your info...will change it. It seems handmade...with the bottom of the hooves showing filing marks
You will see that on a lot of brass.
Amber, did I do ok?
Brass isn't magnetic.
Thoscahaba, is this common?
Yes . I use a magnetic to tell if the handles on old furniture are period.. If it doesn't attract ,you have a brass horse.

She is a beauty, I was hoping it was part of the style not having the tip of the tail as I have seen that affect before on such items, but in this case from what I see from photo it's not part of the making but it still is a beauty. Leah do you get that sort of file mark on ivory.
