Antique Baby Carriage for Dainty Dolls (Late 1800s / Early 1900s) - Wicker, Wrought Iron, and Lace Splendid and sturdy original antique doll carriage dating from the late 19th century / early 20th century. A genuine antiques piece, ideal for discerning collectors, as a historical decorative element or atmospheric prop. The item stands out for a structure of great charm and solidity. It features a dense artisan wicker and rattan weave with spiral motifs, enriched by gold spheres along the outer edges of the cradle. The supporting frame and shaped supports are made of heavy original wrought iron, the large wheels are built with spokes and an outer ferrule/edge in iron, mounted on a robust solid wood central hub turned on a lathe. The umbrella-cap canopy retains its original lace and embroidered tulle lining with floral motifs. Condition: The item is offered in the exact condition found in a dusty attic, only lightly dusted. It has not undergone any modern restoration, thus preserving greater historical integrity, the originality of all components, and the charming patina of time. The wicker and wood structure are solid. The iron shows natural, consistent surface oxidation due to age. The interior fabrics and the lace of the umbrella (glued to the canopy structure) show the classic signs of time, with yellowing and moisture stains from long-term storage. A small tear is noted in the lace fabric of the umbrella, and it also lacks the original hook for hanging. A wholly authentic lot, ideal for a collection of antique toys or for those wishing to perform a conservation-restoration by a work of art. Shipping and transport note: To ensure maximum safety during transport and optimize costs, the umbrella-cap support iron is easily detachable. It will be dismantled and packed separately with extreme care inside the same package to protect the original lace from any stress. Dimensions: • Length: 70 cm • Depth (Width): 34 cm • Cradle height: 63 cm • Overall height (with umbrella mounted): 110 cm • Weight: approximately 16 kg (solid, heavy antique structure) Carefully view the photo gallery.
