The locks, trigger guard and buttplate are all engraved with high relief gold overlay with scroll vinal scenes featuring cherubs in the midst of a hunt of a different animal on each piece. This is all exquisitely crafted in excellent condition. This gun comes in a case that is a piece of art in of itself. The lid is carved and inlaid with different types of wood as well as scrimshawed ivory. The interior features all of the original accessories. This is as good as it gets!
