Antique Whitney Doll Carriage – Early 20th Century

This original Whitney-marked antique doll carriage showcases the craftsmanship and timeless design of early 20th-century toy manufacturing. Featuring a wooden carriage body and handle, a steel frame, and 8-inch solid rubber wheels, this vintage piece remains a stunning example of period toy construction.

A delicate white fabric lining with lace trim enhances its classic aesthetic.
