Factoid: The rocking horse in its current form is widely believed to have first appeared in the early 17th century, 

in the Victorian age that the ‘safety stand’ was introduced and the idea of making the horses hollow was conceived. This made the horses lighter and more stable, and gave birth to the idea of a secret compartment being fitted into the horse’s underbelly.

The family heirloom horse could store photographs, mint coins, locks of baby hair and other such trinkets for future generations to discover. During this era the style of choice was the dappled grey rocking horse, a favourite of Queen Victoria.
