BRASS bronze LIPIZZANER HORSE & RIDER MARBLE BASE. 5.25" figurine Napoleon ?

Description

This is a beautiful metal  figurine. It is  5.25" high X 4.5" long including the base.  the horse only is 4.25" high to top of riders head.  I am pretty sure this is a Lipizzaner stallion and was probably a souvenier of the Spanish Riding school in Vienna, as outfit looks like theirs,  but it  has no markings saying so.    Alternative could be Napolean Bonaparte.   This is not listed in any of my metal horse reference books.  Very shiny metal looks beautiful, very golden with darker shading.  I am not sure if it is brass or bronze or pot metal. no maker marks.  the beige marble is real pretty . the right front  corner has an extrememly small chip, I only discovered it when I was checking it carefully to list.  Trust me, it is very hard to see and does not spoil the piece at all.   photos show one with flash and the others without flash. The flash photo makes a lot of black shadows. It is quite heavy and must ship at the 2 pound rate.
I will be selling more Breyers, Hagen Renakers,  and other horses in the future,  so please see my store and  other auctions, & save money on combined shipping.

I combine shipping. Take the highest shipping cost item, then add .50 for each additional auction won. Of course, some things cannot be combined because they are too large or heavy. Books may only be combined with books. Posters may only be combined with posters. If the box gets too large with multiple items, I reserve the right to ship Parcel Select instead of Priority mail.
I have attempted to describe this item accurately, to the best of my ability. If I see any flaws I always try to point them out. I cannot always tell if something has been changed from it's original finish, or has had a little customizing, as I usually did not get it new. I can not guarantee the maker of an old item either, but try my best to give you accurate info. If I missed any little flaws, they must be really small or minor! If you have any questions, please ask before bidding. I only take returns if I made a significant error in the listing! My home is non smoking with dogs. Many of my items are second hand and I cannot know what the place they came from was like, but I am very careful to buy only clean and nice smelling items to re sell. Although I store my ebay items in clean plastic tubs, stray dog hair might accidentally get on them. See my feedback!
Shipping: I try to keep shipping costs as low as possible, and use the best method for the item. I charge a handling/packing fee depending on the amount of packing material & value I must insure. I use very good materials, and pack carefully. If you want a different shipping method, please ASK IN ADVANCE. I have successfully shipped hundreds of breakable figurines, and pack carefully. BE CONFIDENT IN YOUR PURCHASE, SHIPPING INSURANCE IS INCLUDED ON EVERYTHING I SELL.
USA SHIPPING ONLY!! SORRY, I only ship to USA!
