Good overall Antique Condition - the base has been broken down the middle and re-stuck - one side of the rope twist is off and flaking to the cold painted finish mainly to the hat and back of the figure sat on the camel and a bit to the camel's head - please see images - sold as seen but a very nice item needing only a little cosmetic easy repair - lighter untested but appears all present
A lovely item which does not come onto the market very often
