Description
This Christmas royal soldier figurine is a tall, proud drummer made in resin, standing to attention on a little drum of his own. He wears a red tunic with a white sash across the chest, gold bars and fringed gold epaulettes, and a black belt with a gold buckle, over white trousers and tall black boots. A black top hat with a gold plume crowns his face, which has a dark, curled moustache, and a red and white drum sits at his waist with gold drumsticks in hand. The base beneath his boots is a second drum, banded in gold and painted with red and green zigzags. He stands 42cm tall, 10cm wide and 12cm deep.
At 42cm he has real presence on a mantelpiece, a hall table, a sideboard or a deep windowsill, and he looks just as at home standing guard beside the Christmas tree. His slim footprint means he fits on a shelf or a narrow ledge where a wider decoration would crowd things. The red, white, black and gold colours suit a traditional Christmas scheme, with a touch of green on the drum base. He brings a little old-fashioned pageantry to the season, and makes a lovely Christmas gift for anyone who loves to decorate the house in the classic style.
He is made from polystone resin, which carries fine detail well, from the fringed epaulettes to the curls of his moustache, and his painted finish has a glossy sheen. Freestanding on his drum base, he needs no wall or fixing; stand him on a flat, level surface. To keep him looking his best, dust him with a soft dry cloth, or wipe gently with a lightly damp cloth and dry straight away. Wrap him in tissue and store him upright with the rest of your Christmas treasures, ready for his next tour of duty.
