This creative interpretation of a vintage Indian Carousel Pony
pays proud tribute to the artistic traditions behind the
magnificent, hand-carved, carousel horses that were popular in
America at the turn of the century. With "Native Dancer," we are
commemorating this extraordinary art form and the artisans and
craftsmen that elevated these elaborate Painted Ponies, as they
were known, to a high art. At one time, over 7,000 carousels, or
merry-go-rounds, spun their magical spell in amusement parks around
the world and many of those carousel horses were museum quality
works of art. Regrettably, only 300 carousels remain in existence
today, and they are still stunning and enchanting, after all these
years.
