Rocky Rocking Horse

View text

Commissioned for Magis’ Me Too range for children, Rocky is a modern take on a traditional object - a pop version taking its form loosely from medieval jousting horses. The parallelogram motion mimics the movement of a traditional rocking horse. It is made from rotationally moulded polyethylene chosen for both its durability and recyclability, and is in production by Magis.
