A very finely made early 20th century Japanese tortoiseshell model of a rickshaw with retractable hood in good condition.

The highly detailed model which is almost entirely made from pieces of tortoiseshell with the exception of the metal handles, wheel spokes, and brackets and pins that join the pieces of shell together. The hood comprises three overlapping sections.

Dimensions: 17.5 cm length x 7 cm width

Condition: The condition given the delicate nature of the model is very good. It appears to be complete down to the two tortoiseshell lights either side of the cab. Apart from being a little dirty there is just one crack in the shell, sitting behind the right-side light fitting (most visible on the last photograph - it's the furthest light fitting).

Postage & packing: £5.50 within the UK. Please contact us for a quote if you live overseas.
