This antique set of soldiers is not in mint condition because it has been played with over the generations. There are three British Cavalry Grenadier Guards, two “Beef Eater” British soldiers, one carrying the British flag, the other a rifle, a sentry box and a lead holder for a cannon.
These soldiers, with moveable arms have been clearly played with often, as they are worn with use. I have also included two extra Cavalry soldiers plus a Beef Eater, all with their heads broken off (having seen too many battles) because a collector may make a repair or use out of these extra soldiers. Again, I am fully away that these are not in mint condition but they are antique, probably around 1915 and hand painted. As you can see from the photos, one sword is broken off, a horse leg is bent and possibly missing a hoof, but he still stands. The Cavalry are 3” high and standing soldiers are 3” high.
These lead soldiers are vintage items for adult collectors and not meant for children. They are made of lead and the paint may contain lead.

Our Service Pledge
Like many jewellery makers, I design necklaces I would love to wear myself. So much so, it is always hard to part with one of my pieces. When I make a necklace, I will not go ahead with it's completion until I am completely satisfied as to how it lies, how special and flattering it looks and how balanced all the details are. If it takes many attempts, I will carry on until I have that lovely "yes" feeling inside. I try to always find the best quality and colour I can, within reason and price. And I want to make you feel absolutely delighted with your purchase. Each necklace is a one-off design, so no one will have what you have. And I am pleased to say, I have always had delighted feedback and repeat buyers. Nothing is hidden. Every detail is explained, and if I have not included something you want to know, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I give a year's guarantee with every necklace, so that if threads should break, I will re-make the necklace for free, other than the postage costs. I use very special Japanese threads, expensive for me to buy, but very strong and reliable. However if a breakage occurs, as in you drop the necklace, I will have to charge you for the re-making and supply of materials. But this does not happen often. My aim is for you to be thrilled, charmed and complemented by my necklace.Payments we accept:
