Description
18 in. A vintage hand-crafted miniature model of a cycle rickshaw, also known as a pedicab. The model is constructed with a dark-toned metal frame, likely iron or steel, featuring individual metal spokes on three wheels. It includes a functional-style mechanical design with a miniature metal roller-chain drive connecting the central pedals to the rear axle. The front fork is steerable via handlebars equipped with wooden grips. The cyclist seat is carved from wood and retains remnants of green paint. The rear passenger section consists of a wooden base with a stenciled white inscription reading No. 745 on the side. The passenger seat is upholstered in a black material and is covered by a fixed canopy frame supporting a cream-colored fabric top finished with lace trim.
