Nice to see a whole board just for clinky horse lovers! In hopes it catches on with more of us, I've put the link on my website resources page.
Been collecting since, well, I don't exactly remember. Involved with the model horse hobby since 1971. Wow, a LONG time!
Always loved and had chinas in my collection, eventually, I went to pretty much total china with a few metal horses. Have H-Rs, Beswicks, Royal Worcester, The Horse Gallery, Pour Horse, various interesting Euros, and a couple of metal horses. Pretty much all china, all the time!
I once had Breyers, Hartlands and a few Peter Stones, but they've all gone to other homes long since. I'm still collecting, but buy new pieces infrequently these days. I think my collection is a bit overdue for trimming back a bit. And as I fell and broke BOTH wrists this fall, I probably had ought to get to doing something about that if only to help with the medical bills!
Not long before I fell, I completely destroyed um, updated my website and turned it into a BLOG! Haven't done a lot with it yet so far, but hope to occasionally post some clinky eye candy from either my collection or items I've sold in the past. Typing is still a bit painful, so I haven't been super active posting on the blog yet, but hope to improve.
My latest collecting love is old horse stories, hence the avatar from a particular favorite. Might do some vintage horse book reviews on the blog too.
