History of the Rocking Horse

The early forms of rocking horses come from the hobby horse and the string pull along horse.


Rocking horses date back to the early 17th Century, where they originated in Europe. Knights were the first to use these horses to practice on while sword fighting.

Black Beauty the Rocking Horse with Sound

During both the Victorian Era and Georgian Era rocking horses became a popular commodity to have. When first made, rocking horses were mounted on bow rocker's that can commonly be seen today.


It wasn't until the 1800s, when the safety stand was created in the U.S, to provide a steady frame and gliding motion. The safety stand takes up less room and is commonly used today because of the safety it provides.


Its classic elegance and timelessness has been passed down from generation to generation. Today, rocking horses are entertainment for both the young and old.
