A very rare 19th century cast iron equine hitching post in the form of a jockey. The jockey is classically dressed in the 19th century riding attire, comprising of a black riding hat, red jacket and cream jodhpurs. The jockey is poised on a moulded plinth base, with one arm raised, holding out for use as a hitching post for tying up horses for grooming. He would be holding a stirrup or lantern which is missing.
The sculpture is boasting a nicely weathered patina revealing its age. With its nice proportions and rusty finish, this Turn of the Century English iron jockey sculpture circa 1890s will make for a lovely addition to any home, particularly placed in a garden or main entrance.
