These are so finely made, it is hard to believe that they are hand made (and not lazered out in a factory). Just beautiful. Under each one in peach pen is the written warning that they are for decorative use only. Hoping this could be put on a sticker next time? still highly recommended.

Growing up, I loved the book “ Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There”. In the book was an insect known as a ‘Rocking-Horse-Fiy . I drew one, of my own interpretation, but I lost all of my things, including all of my drawings, in a fire many years ago and could not quite capture the original thought that I had after that.When I saw this beauty I just had to have him! I was not disappointed either. He is just the cutest! I thank the artist, Togo s Suyasa, for this wonderful sculpture that he has shared with us. It has made one of the pictures that I drew years ago come to life.Of course this is a beautiful Flying Rocking Horse and not the cute insect from the book but I will hold this beautiful sculpture just as precious to my heart.
