AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Offered: a handsome set of 8 hand-painted toy soldiers in Napoleonic style, made of tin (metal). The figures depict various units of the French army, including infantry, officers, and a cavalryman on horseback.

The soldiers are hand-painted and display characteristic uniforms from the Napoleonic era, such as shakos, bicornes and sabers. One of the figures is bottom-marked with “Canonnier J. Gribe…”, which presumably refers to a French artilleryman (Gribeauval system).

The set probably dates from the mid-20th century and forms a decorative and collectible ensemble.
