AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid and very rare antique children's transportation toy depicting a horse with a sulky, dating to the first half of the 20th century (approximately the 1930s or 1940s). It is an original piece signed by the historic Italian factory GIBÌR (Turin), renowned for producing cycles and lightweight vehicles for children of the very highest quality.
The item preserves its splendid and authentic patina of the time: on the rear metal fender the rare original GIBÌR marking is still visible and clearly legible, written in red on the characteristic blue-dust paint of the era.
• Structure and materials: Robust frame in wrought iron, curved metal stringers and ribbed fenders. Body of the pony carved from wood. Original seat of the sulky carriage.
