We love vintage wooden trucks and they are so hard to find -!- This is an aged, vintage hand made wooden truck, that has been been played with often and has been much loved- This dates we believe from circa 1930's.
The paint patina on this is simply delicious - it is a faded warm red , it is chippy and worn - but that's what makes it so unique.
Artisan made possibly by a father for his child-
Constructed most likely from fruit wood and painted -
This makes the most delightful display item but could also be perfect for a photographic prop or window styling. We have loaded him with a Christmas tree, a mountain of oranges and apples , cutlery and books (not obviously all at the same time !) but all work perfectly 👌🏼
