Whatever you seek in the world of carousel, Running Horse Studio is the one-stop shop. Running Horse Studio began its' journey with a waterfall-maned Illions in the late 1970's, and has since burgeoned into one of the largest collections on the planet.
Running Horse Studio is not merely renowned for their stellar restorations. Do you know your Dentzels from your Looffs? Your Allan Herschells from your Herschell-Spillmans? Running Horse Studio offers identification, and appraisal services. We offer assistance with the location and purchase of carousel figures and facades, someone "in your corner" amidst a world of fake figures and uninformed antique dealers. The Running Horse Studio collection numbers over 400 strong, and is not for sale, so our integrity is sincere to help you find and confirm your authentic piece at a fair price.

Running Horse Studio covers the gamut for original paint restoration/recreation, factory classic, or something in your favorite hues.
