It’s always delightful to find a treasure at BAHOUKAS that is the perfect gift for that special someone. You’ll want to take some time to browse the shop because we’re stacked full with perfect gifts including these wonderful Jack-in-the-Boxes featuring the Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion!
LOOKING FOR REALLY, REALLY, REALLY UNUSUAL? We’ve featured this carved African Birthing Chair before. CLICK HERE for the earlier post. This is a beautiful piece. You could even take the back with the beautiful carved art and place it in a corner of a room to add to your decor. Exquisite!
Then look for these ‘horsey’ items – just too cute not to consider for the collector on your list or a child! Definitely ‘antiques’ and stunning pieces. 1940s Jockey and racehorse below are in great condition for their age!
A more recent item in our ‘horse’ collection is this 1940s Trotalong MOBO riding horse.
The most well known toy is the BRONCO, the ride-on horse. It works by the rider sitting on the horse and pushing down on the stirrups, then releasing them and then the horse moves along. From 1947 to 1950 the Bronco could only be steered in a straight line, but in February, 1950 Magic Steering was introduced. This enabled the rider by pushing on either stirrup to move the horse in that direction. The Broncho was so popular that it stayed in production until 1971.

As you can see from this post, we definitely have the ‘unusual’ to delight that special person on Christmas morning! Stop by soon, remember the shopping season is shorter this year (between Thanksgiving and Christmas). You know we’re watchin’ for ya!
