Lines were Victorian England Largest Rocking Horse Makers, going on to become the worlds largest toy makers for a time, as Triang Rocking Horses. Never the less the quality was still something even the best makers today will struggle to attain. The company went through some changes, from a small family toy maker in 1850 to a large company in Victorian-Edwardian London. A breakaway off shoot Lines Bros eventually absorbed the Parent company and traded as Triang. Lines Horses tend to have a more feminine look than Ayres and are just as sought after. This fine example showing years of Patina and the beautiful colours coming through is a really cool looking piece and would be a great display piece in a Vintage Shop E.T.C.
