Cabriolet

Historical context

Promenade vehicle used by the Royal Family in the gardens of their palaces. Displays the Portuguese Coat of Arms.

Description

Initially it was a two-wheeler but was modified, and a front wheel set was adapted to it. Although this reduced speed, it increased stability and safety. The open body with a semi circular profile is decorated with simple frames in a floral motif. Closes in the front by means of a black leather panel which serves as the door. The interior is upholstered in red-ochre velvet.
