Comments:  There are six hand painted cavalry figures, each composed of two pieces the officer and his horse.  The rider on the white charger looks a lot like the "Emperor Franz Joseph I" who ruled the "Austrian-Hungarian Empire" from 1848 to 1916.They are in their original packaging and box, bearing the original retail label on the underneath "Spielwarenhaus zum Chinesen. Adele Bischof. Wien XVIII. Wahringerstraase 81-83".
Interestingly, I purchased this set from an antique shop which is now located at the same address in Vienna!
