The furniture is brass and includes some light engraving, nicely shaped finials, pierced armorial designs on the wrist escutcheon, pierced hunting theme design with dogs, game, and a hunter on the side plate.

Rating Definition:

Very good with mostly dark brown patina on the lock and barrel, mild pitting on the breech section and cock, dark aged patina on the brass, mostly distinct markings and designs, and general moderate overall wear. The period refinished stock is also very good and has some thin cracks, a small repair on the bottom of the butt, crisp carving, and generally mild dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
