Condition
The photo is accurate.
Gilding in good overall condition, possibly slightly refreshed on the main figure. Few scratches and wear over the surface, especially the base. One small ring is missing to fix properly the quiver.
Nice contrast between matte and bright gilding. Fine enamelled details (eyes for example).
Very attractive model in good overall condition.
