Very detailed, and showing little signs of age. Assay mark shows year of manufacture to be 1892-93, but there is no other marks to identify the exact tradesman. The only other marks is the engraved chisling of the name schubert inbetween the bust and the stand. The bust depicts Schubert in his bow tie and dress, there are no damages and Schubert is wearing glasses. The piece is very detailed right down to the hair. The detail of this piece even depicts the buttons on his vest and finely crafted lapels to his overcoat. It is apparent the bow tie could be a scarf. The base is round lifting the bust by about 4cm
