Antique Wicker Child's Rickshaw or Carriage

This is an antique maneuverable child's transport vehicle, commonly referred to as a child's rickshaw or push-cart carriage, likely dating from the late 19th or early 20th century (Victorian to Edwardian era). The construction features a primary metal frame with significant surface oxidation and a dark brown patina indicative of age. It includes a seating area with tightly woven natural wicker sides and a small wicker footrest. A notable modification is the inclusion of a modern unfinished plywood board serving as a backrest, suggesting the original wicker or leather upholstery back is missing. The carriage is equipped with two large iron-spoked main wheels with remnants of solid rubber or leather tires, and two smaller trailing metal wheels for stability. A long wooden pull handle is attached via a metal yolk, secured with simple mechanical fasteners. The overall condition shows extensive wear, with visible fraying of the wicker weave, significant rust throughout the iron support structures, and the aforementioned non-period replacement backboard. Despite the wear, the structural integrity of the metalwork appears mostly intact, showcasing early industrial-age child mobility design and utilitarian craftsmanship.
