  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Some telltale signs indicate if a carousel horse is a genuine antique. Most antiques are hollow, and all the body parts are permanently attached. Many modern carousel horses have detachable ears or tails.

On 1stDibs, shop a collection of expertly-vetted carousel horses from some of the world’s top sellers.
