Gilt Metal Pig Figurine

This item is a small, solid-looking figurine depicting a pig, crafted from a material that appears to be metal with a gilt or gold-toned finish. The primary color is a lustrous, somewhat muted gold, exhibiting slight variations in sheen, suggesting either natural patina, surface wear, or the texture of the underlying material. The pig is presented in a static, standing pose, with four stout legs visible, though the precise detailing of hooves or musculature is indistinct due to the overall smooth and somewhat abstract rendering of the form. Its head is slightly turned to the left, featuring small, erect ears and a distinctly recognizable snout. The body is rounded and compact, characteristic of a pig. There are no overt markings, engravings, or maker's marks visible on the surface from this angle. The surface shows some minor inconsistencies in the gilt application or some wear, particularly on the higher points and edges, which gives it a slightly aged appearance rather than a pristine, factory-new look. The craftsmanship appears to be reasonably good for a decorative figurine of this type, with a smooth finish and well-defined basic animal form. Its small size suggests it is likely a decorative accent, a desk ornament, or possibly even a charm or good luck token. The item is resting on a dark teal or emerald green satin-like pouch, which has a drawstring closure, against a multi-colored fleece or faux fur background, presumably indicating the item's current storage or presentation.
