STEVENSON BROTHERS ROCKING HORSES

The Story Behind the Rocking Horses

Beautiful, Bespoke Rocking Horses Made in Kent 

Stevenson Brothers 

“A most unusual career and business choice” is what Tony and Marc are used to hearing since setting up Stevenson Brothers Rocking Horses over 40 years ago.

Twins in business together is rare, but making rocking horses together, almost unheard of. 

 

Their inspiration came from their uncle James and their father. They were both Naval Shipwrights in the Chatham Dockyard.

 

Uncle James made toys and rocking horses all his life - Marc & Tony always thought they would be given one to share.

 

Although, that never happened, Uncle James passed on his skills and the pair now make rocking horses which bring joy to so many people all over the world.

ABOUT STEVENSON BROTHERS ROCKING HORSES

THE STORY SO FAR...

ROCKING SINCE 1982

"In the early 1980s, we convinced our sister to lend us a shed on her farm and two bedrooms. Fortunately, she did and we moved into our first workshop on Finn Farm in Kingsnorth.

 

After six months we officially launched Stevenson Brothers Rocking Horses on our birthday; 20th October 1982. We numbered every horse starting with 001; a tradition we continue to this day where every rocking horse has a numbered plaque.

 

Sue Russell started working with us in an administrative role and soon became a partner in the business. Our team continued to grow with skilled artists becoming part of Stevenson Brothers Rocking Horses. 

We have made nearly 10,000 rocking horses for adults and children all over the world. Our clients include royalty, sports personalities, artists, interior designers, musicians, horse lovers and more.

 

We were privileged to make and present rocking horses to the late Queen Elizabeth II as well as her grandchildren. We restored a rescued rocking horse for the legendary Dame Mary Berry. We have designed charity rocking horses with Dame Joanna Lumley, Dame Maureen Lipman, Kelly Hoppen CBE, Julien McDonald OBE, Sir Paul McCartney, Dame Judi Dench and Nicky Clarke OBE, to name but a few. 

Our rocking horses are a luxury product and something truly special. Unlike any other toy, a bespoke rocking horse is a lasting legacy for your family. It can be treasured for generations to come.

 

We are increasingly seeing interior designers incorporate rocking horses into their concepts for nursery designs, a child's bedroom, a library, music room, lounge, garden room, family room and more. Regardless of your age, a Stevenson Brothers rocking horse really is the perfect addition to your home."
