Guichard Studio Carabinieri Relief
A relief of an Italian Carabinieri head with distinctive Lucerna head-dress.
The Italian Carabinieri (Arma dei Carabinieri) are Italy's national gendarmerie, a military corps with both policing and military function.
The Carabinieri uniform is a distinctive black, double-breasted jacket with a white bandolier worn across the chest for duty, and often includes a traditional black hat called a Lucerna.
The relief is approximately 11 inches tall and 6 inches wide at its widest point. The relief stands out around 2 inches at most.
There is some wear to some of the paintwork as shown in the photographs.
