Vintage Dog Cart

While this item is sold, please enquire if you are interested in another similar.

We found this original wooden dog cart in considerable need of repair. Having taken it entirely apart to remove decades of degrease and dirt build up, we stripped off flaking paint leaving only remnant to capture it’s evolution through time. All the mechanical parts and steel were stripped of flaking rust, cleaned and waxed to seal in its natural patina. Any woodworm was treated and rotten wood was sympathetically replaced with matching vintage wood. All wood surfaces were then painstakingly sanded and treated with a natural colour hard wax oil.

Probably dating back to the 1920’s, it is now fully restored and in excellent working order, with original wheels and forged steel rims, steel hubs and pulling handle. All its original charm and weathered look is now preserved for future generations to enjoy

This is a stunning exterior of interior design piece that would make a wonderful centre piece for a floral presentation and would be equally suited to an entrance way of a Country House Hotel or home as it would to a traditional florist or heritage and festival location.
