I am pleased to offer a lovely vintage horse figurine made by Beswick, England
GIRL ON PONY
Model #1499 designed by Arthur Gredington
One of two variations - this model has the girl with head looking down
Introduced 1957 and discontinued by 1965
SKEWBALD colorway in tan and cream
Wonderful handpainting - so lifelike and very typical of the vintage Beswick pieces
Sadly a break to the lower right front leg on the horse - the piece has been glued back in place; it could be easily professionally restored
Otherwise, no chips, cracks, hairlines, other damage or restoration
I have checked over everything with a jeweller's loupe and all other parts have survived intact
Measures 5 3/8" tall from tabletop to tip of ears and 6 1/2" across from tip of nose to edge of tail - note the open tail
Marked with earlier oval Beswick black mark and the number 95 handpainted in black
Please ignore all other white spots on photos caused by camera flash
My Charlton Guide from 2000 Millenium Edition shows a value of $1050 USD for a model in perfect condition
