Model Rickshaw 15cm

Rickshaws are still used in rural regions of Madagascar as a mode of transport and provide a living for those who cannot find work elsewhere.

The craftspeople of Madagascar also make models of these rickshaws with each one being crafted from recycled materials by tinsmiths in the villages around the Madagascan capital Antananarivo. The parts are cut without use of a template before being soldered together, making each Rickshaw completely unique. For this reason I have photographed each separately and put them on as individual listings.
