Lot 648: A Collection of Cast Metal British Military Figurines on Plinth Bases
A collection of cast metal figurines, likely pewter, depicting various historical British military figures in detailed period uniforms. Each figure is mounted on a small, dark-coloured rectangular plinth base. Several figures feature identification nameplates. Legible text on these plates includes The Queen’s Lancers 1836, The Royal Horse Artillery 1815, The 57th Regiment of Foot 1815, and The Black Watch. The figures are depicted in various poses, including standing at ease and holding weaponry such as lances and rifles. The metal features a silver-toned finish with detailed casting showing uniform accoutrements, headgear, and facial features.
Condition report:
The collection appears in generally good condition. Visible surface dust is present across the figures and bases. Some minor shelf wear and light scratches are evident on the plinth bases. The metal castings show no signs of significant oxidation or structural damage.
