Description
Horse-drawn carriage, circa 1860, Hte Delongueil, Paris Three-quarter coupé with a rounded front end. Needs restoration; has a very beautiful patina. This fiacre was used for festivities right up until the 1970s. It comes with its leather seats and forward-facing armchairs, providing three full seats; the folding seat is retractable and is held in place by a support bracket which is not original. The interior upholstery remains in its original condition. The windows are present; the one behind the coachman’s seat is in two pieces. The side windows are complete, though one requires restoration at the wooden track. A semblance of local coat of arms can be seen on the doors. The leather lining of the roof needs replacing. The mudguard is present. The lanterns on the carriage are not the original ones. Rear axle width: 180 cm – total length 270 cm and height: 200 cm. The coachbuilder Hippolyte Delongueil (19th century) was a renowned Parisian coachbuilder active in the mid-19th century. His creations were renowned for their great elegance and technical sophistication. Expert: Renaud de BENGY 60.81.73.20.62
