This hand-painted pewter figurine depicts a huntsman with his hunting horn and pack of hounds. Dressed in the red colors of his hunting party, this hunter scans the forest in search of game. Made in France, like all Figurart figurines, it is painted with the utmost care before receiving a glossy varnish, typical of traditional figurines.

 What is a piqueur or piqueux?
 
 
 In the tradition of stag hunting, the huntsman plays a crucial role. An expert in hunting, he precisely guides the pack of hounds and oversees the pursuit of the game. His in-depth knowledge of the hunting grounds allows him to anticipate the game's movements and guide the hunters through natural obstacles. His ability to interpret hunting signals and his proven experience make him an indispensable member of the hunt. At the heart of this activity, which combines tradition and strategy, the huntsman embodies operational excellence and the cultural heritage of stag hunting.
