The Colibri-made wooden master model of Scaramanga’s titular Golden Gun from the production of Guy Hamilton’s Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun. Francisco Scaramanga (Christopher Lee) used his golden gun – constructed from innocuous, everyday items – to assassinate his victims.

This wooden model was made by Colibri, a company which primarily manufactures cigarette lighters and jewellery. Colibri is credited with making the iconic gun seen in the film.

This model was used as Colibri’s master template for the iconic weapon, which also featured heavily in the promotional campaign for the film and has since become one of the most famous and recognizable weapons in cinematic history.

After the production, it was gifted to the set designer of Scaramanga's kitchen.

The model is constructed from several wooden pieces, which are shaped like the items used in the film and glued together. It is accompanied by its original envelope, which has “Fragile Handle With Care -–007 Golden Gun Mock-Up/Property of ‘Colibri’” handwritten in red ink on the front. The gun model has only very minor wear from production use and age, but it remains in a fragile condition, while the envelope has creasing, small tears and staining. Dimensions (gun): 25.5 cm x 13 cm x 1 cm (10" x 5" x½")

Estimate: £4,000 - 6,000 M
