Part of a very limited run by Leonard Francolini, only a few of these very well-executed diminutive statues are known. They feature the iconic rampant Colt trademark in silver with intact spears reared on a golden globe. Globe rests on a sculpted silver and brass pedestal. Statuette is mounted to an American made walnut base with relief "COLT" plaque and removable glass dome. Statue measures approximately 4 - 1/2" tall. With base and vitrine it measures approximately 5". Included with this lot is the original box for the base and vitrine. CONDITION: Excellent. The rampant Colt has developed a rich, mellowing patina, as has the silver base. The lower spear shows a slight bend. Globe remains bright. Brass correctly displays intentional verdigris, the surface of the plaque polished bright to highlight "COLT". Vitrine is intact and free of chips. A fantastic masterwork, the perfect desk ornament for any discerning Colt collector.
Item Dimensions: 5 x 5 x 7"
