WoW! Very rare sujet! 1830 is indeed correct, althoug its hard to beleave facing the ancient Uniform and arms.

He is not "normal" guard, but a specil unit: The Caucasian Guards.

Very nice Figure

Cheers

If to be more exact, as prompt to me colleagues, this is the subaltern officer of a Leib-Guards Kavkazo-Gorsky semi-squadron of the Escort of Its Own Imperial Majesty. It is created in 1828, in 1857 it is increased to a squadron. Consisted of representatives of the highest nobility of the Caucasian tribes.

Some more pics of the Caucasian Guard:

I would suggest Pegaso, to change the title of the figure:
"Officer of the Caucasian Guards of the Tsar, 1830".

That would avoid misunderstandings for there were several other guard units, whose looked quite different.
