Hand-Built 1970s Oak Rocking Horse with Googly Eyes
This charming rocking horse captures the whimsical spirit of vintage folk-art toys. Crafted from solid oak with a warm brown stain, it features a slatted seat, smoothly curved rockers, and a carved horse head accented with playful googly eyes and peg handles. The horse was originally made in the late 1970s by a craftsman working under the name Charter Oak, known for producing handmade oak reproductions. It was offered for sale through a Colorado store during that time, where the owner carried pieces from this maker — adding a touch of provenance and regional folk-art history to this unique piece.
