About the Item

19th century articulated wooden figure We are proud to offer a rare survivor from the 19th century, in the form of a hand carved pine figure of a soldier. With a polychrome painted surface attached to a wooden base, this example would have been fully clothed at some point and likely part of a larger collection of toy figures or the like. Its arms are fabric over wire so they can be moved. A tactile object and rare due to its good condition. Size in inches: H 12.5” x W 4” x D 3.5” Period: mid-19th Century Material: Wood Origin: Italian Condition: Good Completely solid in structure and form, please expect age related wear across all this item as the images aim to illustrate. For its age, this item is in exceptional condition and clean. With a light patination of the painted surface, with aged chips and fading of the surface as you may expect. Its exceedingly difficult to photograph all the areas in this piece, therefore we strongly suggest reviewing all the photos provided as part of this advert and propose questions where sections are unclear to avoid disappointment.
