Hi friends,
I discovered this auction on Vinted marketplace: https://www.vinted.it/items/9320962750-avion-en-laiton-vintage
What is it?
Just a toy / desktop model or a wind model?
According to the seller, the model is heavy (bronze?) and probably built on 1940.
It reminds me the Caudron- Renault 640 Typhon, but I'm not sure...
Hope you'll enjoy!

The material would suggest a static display model, as would the hole in the bottom and the relatively small size.
 
I have similar of a Lockheed Hudson. Had it since I was a kid. I've seen a few over the years, some have been chromed like the Viscount ashtray I have. I did wonder if these were apprentice pieces.
