Souvenir AK-47 | Nouveau Rouge (Factory New)

Skin overview

AK-47 | Nouveau Rouge pairs an ivory base with wine-red flowing shapes and thin gold linework in an ornamental, Art Nouveau-like manner. In Factory New the cream areas stay bright and even, and every gold curl reads crisply against the red. This is the grade for buyers who want the artwork exactly as designed.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

Appearance in Factory New

The receiver is ivory with thin gold scrollwork and red floral flourishes, while the dust cover and rear sight area carry gold-brown accents. The handguard and barrel are wine-red with gold outlines, and the front sight stays in the same deep red.

The finish is clean on every part: the ivory base is uniform and the gold lines are sharp. The red handguard and grip keep a solid, even tone. At normal in-game distance the rifle reads as a bright cream-and-red weapon with clear ornament. Nothing on the model draws attention away from the artwork.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Gold, foil and holo stickers in warm tones echo the gold accents, while deep red or burgundy stickers blend with the wine sections. The cream receiver area gives darker stickers strong contrast, so restrained, elegant designs fit better than bright neon ones.

What to check before buying

• Look at where the float sits within the wear grade, since the pale base shows wear earlier than darker finishes.
• Inspect the magazine edges and the front of the handguard, as these lose paint first.
• Check whether the gold scrollwork on the receiver is still continuous.
• If you choose a Souvenir copy, make sure its pre-applied stickers suit the cream-and-red design.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the ornament and pale base in their cleanest state.
• Sticker crafters who need a spotless canvas for gold or red stickers.
• The choice when the artwork itself is the main reason to buy.
