Antique Questions Forum / Re: Bamboo baby carriage... anyone?

It is definitely meant for a real baby.  We put a friend's baby in there and it fit perfectly!  It's very sturdy and well made.  The height would work for a person about 4" 10" or less, I am guessing.  I have to bend down a bit to push it and I am about 5' 2". 

I can't find anything like it either but it was bought at an antique shop in Seville, Spain in 1970 and was thought to be originally from China.  So I was hoping someone would know about Chinese antiques or at least where I could look for info.

Antique Questions Forum / Bamboo baby carriage... anyone?

My friend gave this to me and she has had it for 40 years and bought it as an antique back then.

It is supposedly from China, but that is all I know.

It's 28" high.

Any information about the age, value or where it is from, woould be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
