Dimensions:15 cm high, 15 cm wide (perfection!!!)Approx. 5 cm deepCondition:Great Patina and signs of age as I have mentioned before. A few paint splashes on the interior of legs, but really nothing detracting and obviously another testimony of its previous owner.As I am preparing this listing and examining this Dala Horse I am in two minds about selling it. It just feels so wonderful and inviting to touch as it is beautiful to look at!!!!But I am not a Dala Horse collector, just a temporarry curator of authentic objects of exceptional beauty and soul...I keep reminding myself :-)
