H.G. Schreiber Antique Spider Phaeton / Carriage, late 19th- to early 20th-century horse-drawn carriage by German carriage builder H.G. Schreiber (Rheydt, Germany) features finely painted black wood bodywork with intricate red pinstriping accents, woven cane side paneling, plush black interior upholstery with red carpet, an elevated rear footman seat, and attached side carriage lamps. Hubcaps are clearly stamped "H.G. SCHREIBER RHEYDT". Modern hydraulic rear disc brakes have been added for safety. The carriage is in good to very good restored condition. The 14 spoke wooden wheels are 45" front and 48" rear. Minor paint chips, light wear on hardware, and minor surface oxidation typical of age and display. The left rear spring is slightly weaker than right side, likely from the loading steps being on that side. The left side carriage light lower finial is missing, see photos, 73"h x 71"w x 101"d Note: Pickup/Transport required. Contacts available post auction.
