Photo images sent within this correspondence are not cropped regardless that images within this memo appear to be cropped? If important, I am pleased to photograph this item with larger borders.
Whatever you may be able to assist me to identify this beautiful wooden careved carousel horse will be greatly appreciated. It was purchased from the estate of a 90+ year old Lady who passed away this past week who purchased antique carousel horses and rounding boards from various countries during her many years of collecting carousel items. One lot of carousel horses were purchased from within France many years ago. Several coursel horses from her collection have been designated are said to have been donated and shipped to a museum.
Thank you so very much for your consideration.
