Ancient original carriage from the 1800s
About the Item
Original Italian carriage from around 1870-80.
Four-wheeled carriage equipped with a large foldable canvas bellows,
with a two-seat seat for passengers and fitted with a higher seat for the coachman.
The back seat is in black leather, padded and with buttons, likewise the backrest. Under the seat there is an openable compartment for tools (original keys to tighten the wheel bolts) or valuables.
Climbing onto the carriage is facilitated by a round platform.
The coachman is placed in the forward position of the carriage outside the passenger compartment on a raised housing with padded seat and platform.
The coachman's station is equipped with 2 square-shaped lights/lanterns and a crank brake.
Are the wheels attached to the passenger compartment by leaf spring suspension? in metal to improve the ride comfort of the passengers.
The draw is one horse and the shafts are decorated.
The carriage has never been restored and the decorations (brush threads) are still perfectly visible.
This type of carriage was later developed as an automobile as well

- Antique Large & Rare, Late 1800s Hand Crafted Wooden Carriage Novelty Cigar BoxLocated in Lisse, NLLarge, masterly hand-crafted and amazing condition wooden antique coach cigar holder. If you are a collector of truly unique antiques in general and of cigar or carriage related pieces in particular then this one of a kind centerpiece could be flying your way soon. Over the years we have sold a few antique novelty cigar holders, but never one of this size and never in the form of a carriage. Back in the day when this type of carriages were the means of transportation for only the wealthiest of western societies, smoking cigars certainly was a manly thing to do and very much 'en vogue'. Smoking cigars also proved that you had made it in this world. For all those reasons, this hand-crafted carriage cigar holder has always been and always will be a statement piece. We, as antique enthousiast, first and foremost fell in love with the workmanship and with the honest and timeless way in which this carriage was hand-crafted. We also love how perfectly balanced and realistic it is and for us to have been given the opportunity to buy yet another unique antique and in such amazing condition again felt like a blessing. The former owner, in our view, had gone a little overboard in trying to be the best custodian, because he kept this unique antique in an aquarium-like glass dome. He certainly succeeded, because this carriage cigar holder is in THE best possible condition. The quality in the details and the overal balance of this coach mixed with the warm patina of the antique wood is what makes this aesthetically pleasing antique a real gem to own and to look at. We believe this work of antique craftsmanship is of museum quality and condition and no matter where you decide to have it on display, this work of art will never fail to impress. In all honesty who would not be impressed (and amused) when being offered a cigar that is in the door of a large, handcrafted, 19th century model carriage...Category
