As they move, his arms, legs and head bob in time, and the horse's head nods along, with a soft ticking rhythm like an old nursery clock before settling back to rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEach piece is cut, shaped, assembled and hand-painted in a traditional blacksmith's workshop, in the spirit of the painted tinplate balancing toys of the Victorian and Edwardian nursery. Made in small batches, so no two are exactly the same, the little differences in the brushwork are the mark of proper handmade work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA really special piece for a nursery shelf, child's bedroom, playroom or grandparent's mantelpiece. The kind of nursery ornament that gets kept, passed down and remembered, exactly the sort of thing that stayed on a shelf all through childhood and comes out again a generation later for the grandchildren. A lovely new baby, christening, naming day or first birthday gift, and a memorable present from grandparents, godparents, aunts and uncles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Balance Model-Product Details and Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Victoriana Folk Art \/ Balancing Metal Sculpture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-hammered metal, hand-painted finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Counterbalanced rocking motion (no batteries or electricity required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nursery rhyme and storybook gifts, new baby and christening presents, nursery decor, grandchild and godchild keepsakes, heirloom gifts, folk art collectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall height:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 45cm (18in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1kg (2.2lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFREE UK SHIPPING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWine bottle shown for scale (30cm, 12 inches tall)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bottle not included\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LuckyCoinCurio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63315929235805,"sku":"128","price":69.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/6226\/3389\/files\/IMG_9532.jpg?v=1782332277","url":"https:\/\/luckycoincurio.co.uk\/products\/hobby-horse-blue-boy-nursery-rhyme-balance-model","provider":"LuckyCoinCurio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
