You are looking at a very rare Parker Armored Lead Carousel Horse. Some original paint, all the original jewels. We are researching now to see if we can find which carousel he came off of.<p>This is the Outer row horse. Jeweled with over 85 Round and Square Glass Rhinestones, all original.<p>Measurements are 58 inches long, and 45 inches tall and 14 inches wide.<p>The beautiful carved details include a short curved symitar, a shield, the American flag on the cantle. The many rows of Armored plating each has a silver border edge. Along the crest of the neck the entire row is jeweled. Each of the two lower rows of the neck are jeweled.<p>The head Armor has the wood piece, called a shaffron, to help defend the horse. There are 2 jewels on the face, one is missing and will be replaced, and 4 jewels on the side of the face. On the front Chest plate, there is carved an almost crown shape with 10 jewels, and a bar with several more across the top of it.<p>Across the horse's back, there is a cantle bag, detailed as the American flag. On the saddle pad or blanket below it, is a scalloped armored pattern. To go with this, there is carved on the rear flank (side) the American shield surrounded by a border with, I believe 13 jewels! How patriotic! Scroll work and fringes also bedeck the carving on the Romance side.<p>He has a Flying peek-a- boo tail, all original, and 3 of his 4 shoes, are marked Leavenworth, Kansas.<p>The sale of this horse will include the full restoration, and painting. ...
