COACHBUILDING

COACHBUILDING

By the end of the 19th Century, the carriage builders had reached the peak of their art. The well-known craftsmanship of the Belgian coachbuilders was a guarantee for marvellous and durable creations. At Carriages Schroven, we aim to keep this tradition alive. Over forty years of experience allow us to reproduce faithfully any kind of antique carriage. In order to maintain their unique character, we have built not more than 3 or 4 of each type, and even these are different to each other in minor details. They represent an even interesting investment as than the old ones..
