Product details
THIS IS TRULY A ONE OF A KIND ORIGINAL SOLID CAST BRONZE SCULPTURE. I HAD THE METAL TESTED AND IT IS 87% COPPER WHICH MAKES THIS A HIGH QUALITY BRONZE.
THERE IS NO MAKERS NAME ON THE BRONZE WHICH MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT THE ORIGIN ETC , HOWEVER THERE WAS ALOT OF INPUT FROM PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEIR SOUTH AFRICAN HISTORY ON WARS.
THERE WAS 3 VERSIONS . FIRST THAT IT COULD BE A SOLDIER WEARING A UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA MILITARY 1910 PITH HELMET WHICH DEPICTS 1914 WW1 ERA. SECONDLY IT COULD BE A 1900 BRITISH SOLDIER IN CEREMONIAL UNIFORM AND THIRDLY IT COULD BE A MEMBER OF THE BRITISH SOUTH AFRICAN POLICE FORCE IN RHODESIA. I SPENT HOURS ON GOOGLE AND GOING THROUGH OLD WAR BOOKS AND NEVER FOUND ANY PICTURE WHICH WAS IDENTICAL.
THIS BELONGED TO MY LATE FATHER INLAW AND NOBODY IS SURE WHERE AND WHEN HE GOT IT. ITS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE , WELL MADE AND IS MOUNTED ON A MARBLE BASE. THE BASE HAS NO CHIPS ON IT AND THE SCULPTURE IS ALL INTACT.
SIZE: 53CM TALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE BASE , 47CM TALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE HORSES FEET. LENGTH 42CM AND WIDTH 17CM.
WEIGHT 28 KILOGRAMS
