    Hi all friends,
    can you help me in dating this Roman chariot in bronze, or painted brass? It seems rather old to me, I would risk saying ancient, but I don't have enough experience to be able to assign a dating and therefore I trust in your opinions.
    It measures 16cm in length and 11cm in width.
    Thanks a lot
    Gianluca

    Thank you very much,
    it's exactly the same model, they sell it for € 235. Mine, however, is without the base, perhaps it had been removed, and I notice that my patina is different. Perhaps it was worked over the original patina, to create another one on top. However, the model is just the same.
    Thanks, you have been very helpful.
