Here are some photos of my latest acquisition. Sorry for the garbage iphone pictures, but hopefully you can see the detail. This thing is amazing!

Zach,
That's an absolutely brilliant chariot!!! The sculpting and painting detail is A1. I love the paintings on the chariot and the carpet the passengers are standing on. This is right up there with the best chariots I have seen including Arsenyev's Persian chariots. Thank you for sharing the pics. You must be stoked beyond words! Big time score; congratulations!!

I got it from a friend who was selling it, so I don't know the specifics. I added a photo of the bottom for anyone who may be able to ID all the markings

Zach,
Beautiful Arsenyev piece. I purchased the same piece from a long time collector recently. I will post some photos. I love seeing a different paint scheme on the casting.
