Hi,
Is it a Russian peasant playing Spanish guitar? I would expect balalaika.
Marks are wrong (and incuse mark)The entire figure is a fake.
Sorry.

``Russian`` marks aside, the figurine is poorly sculptured and cast.

Hi -
Kangin, Wasili I. from St. Petersburg is one of the most frequently found Russian makers in collections.
The variety and quality of his manufactured articles is amazing! He was also the supplier for some famous other manufacturers - which speaks for the quality of his work.
