Vintage 1950s Horse Figurine Royal Dux Rearing Stallion Czechoslovakia

This is a wonderful quality figurine made by Royal Dux of Czechoslovakia in the form of a rearing stallion horse. They still made these into the 1990s, but this is definitely an older one, I believe dating to 1956. The piece is marked on the underside with the matte pink triangle with the letter D in the middle, which began to be used in 1947. It is also stamped with Royal Dux Made in Czechoslovakia and retains its original foil label. The underside is impressed with the numbers 32 7 2 56 - I think that the 56 is a date code for 1956. The figure is quite large, measuring 12 in height and weighing 1 lb and 12 oz. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or wear.
This is a wonderful display item for the horse lover - excellent quality and modelling!
