Vintage Solid Brass Rearing Unicorn Figurine

This is a vintage cast brass figurine of a unicorn, depicted in a dynamic, rearing or galloping pose. The object is constructed from a heavy solid brass alloy, exhibiting a warm gold-yellow metallic color with areas of significant oxidation and age-related patina. Physically, the unicorn features a stylized mane, a thick flowing tail, and a single spiral horn. The craftsmanship suggests a mid-20th-century decorative piece, possibly from the 1970s or 1980s when brass mythological figures were popularized. Notable condition issues are present, most significantly a missing rear leg which has been snapped off, revealing the internal grain of the metal and a greenish-blue verdigris corrosion at the break point. There are also visible spots of green oxidation near the head and horn. The surface shows minor pitting and scratches consistent with handling and age. No specific maker's marks or signatures are immediately visible on the upward-facing side. The item is resting on a woven wicker tray alongside other disparate objects, indicating its current state as a secondhand or salvaged collectible.
