Hesus is an old school icon reimagined for the new school of kids who loved to play on rocking horses and then grew up to be design aficionados.
Designed by J.Key Schneyorson, Hesus gets back to basics with a geometric design composed of sectors in a circle, scaled at various sizes and combined to create an abstract shape of a horse.
The minimalist frame is made with welded stainless steel tubing and features a chic woven leather seat. Even if you didn't like rocking horses back in the day, there's no denying this would make quite a statement piece in the modern grown-up home.

This rocks!
The first picture makes it look like the seat is quite narrow and my first thought was 'Well that can't be comfortable'. But the other pictures show that it's a quite beautiful design.
How much? (I'm thinking about the same as a real pony. Cleaner though). :)
No thank you.
Pretty. My guess is that a real pony is cheaper. =)
Ok, from an adult's standpoint this design is pretty cool. Just show me one child who'd prefer this over a traditional rocking horse.
I would have adored it as a kind ~ like a rocking jungle gym (not that you see those anymore).
The text is right when it says this is designed for kids who have already grown up. A real kid is going to want something that looks more like a horse and less like a status symbol. And how many adults are going to ride this for more than 15 seconds? It works as art but don't call it a rocking horse. The text is also right when it says this would be a good "statement piece." And the statement is: "We have way more space than anybody needs, and we are blowing money filling holes so as to avoid embarrassing pauses in the visual conversation."
