Vintage Continental Army soldier figurine wall plaque, a hand-painted bisque (porcelain) figure of a Revolutionary War minuteman mounted on rich red velvet inside a wooden shadow-box style frame. The soldier wears a tricorn hat, blue Continental coat with gold trim, tan breeches, white stockings and black boots, and shoulders a long musket with a crossbelt across his chest. The detailed hand-painted finish and the framed velvet presentation make this a striking piece of Americana wall art, likely dating to the mid-to-late 20th century.
The piece carries a small round foil maker\'s or importer sticker on the wooden back, which is not legible at this resolution and would identify the manufacturer (figures of this type were widely produced in Japan and other markets). It is ready to hang with wire and hardware already fitted to the back.

This vintage soldier wall plaque is a wonderful piece of Colonial Americana, perfect for a den, study, man cave, patriotic display or Revolutionary War collection.

Rustic wood framing pairs beautifully with traditional and country decor.
