The horse is approximately 52" Long and 46" Tall, 62" to top of the pole.

We advise that the buyer also to do their own research to confirm its maker prior to purchase as this piece is being sold as-is with the understanding of this assessment and that we are not Carousel Horse experts.

ON-LINE SALES / TERMS OF USE
We carefully examine each and every item that we offer for sale.  Any noteworthy flaw on any product that we offer that comes to our attention is disclosed.  Due to the delicate nature of antique furniture & decorative art each piece is subject to reasonable wear and tear.  We can’t possibly describe every minute item and do our best to take quality high resolution photos so that potential buyers can view the item(s) for themselves if they are not able to visit our gallery in-person.  We simply don’t sell pieces that have major issues as we completely avoid them.  The exception to this would be rare pieces that have an intrinsic value regardless of condition with their true condition noted in the listing.  We represent all merchandise in absolute good faith and to the very best of our ability.  All sales are final; items are sold AS-IS and with the sale subject to Michigan’s General Laws.  All Michigan residents are subject to the 6.00% sales tax unless you possess a valid resale number from the State of Michigan.  We do not accept returns, so please ask all questions or ask for additional photos prior to submitting an offer or purchasing.  We have a zero tolerance policy for non-paying buyers.  Any offer we accept is a binding sale and subject to the conditions herein.
SHIPPING & PICK-UP
If we offer shipping in the listing for the piece(s) purchased the price listed includes eBay and PayPal fees, packing materials, labor and actual shipping cost including insurance and a delivery signature.  The items we offer are often large, odd shaped, fragile and come in various shapes and weight.  These pieces do not have original boxes and cushion materials such as new items purchased on Amazon.  Each item must be carefully packed in custom boxes or crates with the use of bubble wrap, peanuts, and other blocking materials.   While we do our best in buying shipping materials in bulk, and use the most efficient packing methods, we must incorporate the cost of custom packing in our shipping price.  It is not our intention to make money on shipping; however, we must recover our costs.
When a listing indicates “free local pick-up” it means we will facilitate a pickup by the buyer, or their designated third party, at our Gallery in Troy, MI.  If the buyer can not personally pick up the item(s) purchased we will assist in the pickup by the buyer's selected third party.  The third party will act solely as an agent of the buyer who would be solely responsible for any possible damage that may occur after release by the Gallery.
We will assist in trying to help the buyer in contacting a third party by supplying them with the local FedEx and UPS store numbers.   We will also attempt to evaluate what our packing and shipping costs would be in comparison to FedEx and UPS, which in general would be much less as we do not profit off of our packing and shipping.  While we cannot offer shipping on many larger items, and shipping is not a profit center for us, where feasible, it may be offered to the buyer as an alternative.   If in the event we agree to pack and ship the item(s) the buyer will be invoiced through email prior to packing.  Payment for the Gallery’s packing and shipping can be made via Credit Card by calling our gallery during business hours. We do not accept PayPal under this shipping arrangement and the payment for packing and shipping is non-refundable.  Payment to third parties for packing and shipping are to be made directly to them by the buyer directly.
LOCAL PICK UP
All of our customers are welcome to come by our gallery to pick up their purchases free of charge providing the arrangements are made prior to purchase.   We ask that you come ready to transport your purchase by having ample pads or blankets to protect your item in transit if needed.  We do not store purchased items and unless otherwise mutually agreed as to terms of a delayed pick-up a charge of weekly will be applied to furniture or large objects after 2 weeks from purchase date.
LOCAL DELIVERY
Our local white glove delivery costs vary on size and weight of piece(s) and destination location based on mileage / distance from our gallery. Please contact for quote prior to making an offer or purchase.
RETURNS
We do not accept returns and sell all items AS-IS unless otherwise noted in the listing.  Please review the listing thoroughly and contact us regarding any questions and/or additional photos.
