A Collection of 14 Vintage Miniature Cast Brass and Bronze-Toned Historical Figures and Scale Weapons - A collection of 14 vintage miniature decorative items and scale historical models, primarily cast in brass and bronze-toned metals. The assembly includes a range of figures and scale weapon models, several of which are commemorative pieces. The inventory of figures features a Lady Justice figure in a bronze-toned finish, blindfolded and holding a sword and scales; a Viking warrior with a horned helmet and shield; a knight in a full suit of plate armour standing on a decorated rectangular plinth; a Napoleonic-era infantryman in a shako; a kneeling figure; a miniature lion figure on a plinth; and a soldier figure mounted on a scalloped dish. Two pieces are specifically marked as Waterloo commemoratives: the lion figurine base is inscribed with WATERLOO and the Roman numerals MDCCCXV, representing the year 1815, and the soldier dish rim also features the WATERLOO inscription. The group of scale weapons includes three long-barreled flintlock or percussion muskets, two ornate flintlock-style pistols, a basket-hilt sword, a D-guard infantry sabre, a curved scimitar, and an ornate sheathed dagger with a white handle and decorative metal fittings. These items vary in design, representing themes from the Viking, Medieval, and Napoleonic periods.
