Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you order.
How does the movement work — is it battery-powered?
Yes. A built-in rechargeable battery powers the moving mechanism. Gently touch the start control to activate the horse’s motion. Recharge the battery when needed.
Does it come assembled, or do I need to build it?
It arrives fully assembled. Take it out of the box and it's ready to display and demonstrate immediately — no tools, no manual, no assembly time required.
What's the difference between Sapele and Beech?
The dark finish offers a deeper, richer appearance and is our bestselling recommendation. The lighter finish has a brighter, more understated look. Please check the available product options and photos before ordering.
Is it fragile? Can children use it?
This is a mechanical display sculpture with moving parts, so handle it gently and avoid forcing the mechanism. We recommend it for age 14+ because younger children may be rough with it. Keep small children from operating the moving parts without adult supervision.
Can I use it as a desk decoration when not actively turning it?
Absolutely. At rest the horse makes a striking sculptural centrepiece. Display it on a desk or shelf and activate the motion with a gentle touch whenever you want to enjoy it.
How do I care for it?
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid getting it wet or exposing it to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can affect the wood colour and finish over time. The lacquer finish protects normal handling well.
What if something breaks or stops working?
If your model has a problem, please contact customer support with your order details so we can review the issue and available solutions.
When will I receive it?
Shipping options and delivery estimates are shown at checkout and may vary by destination.
