About AK-47 | Gold Arabesque
The Souvenir AK-47 | Gold Arabesque in Field-Tested is one of the rarer wear-tier souvenir AKs in CS2 — Gold Arabesque's hand-painted gold filigree from the Spectrum 2 Collection paired with the four-sticker Souvenir layout. Souvenir Gold Arabesque AKs only dropped during a single Major event window in 2018.
Why souvenir status drives the price
The MVP/Champion sticker rolls from this drop window can include Major-defining team and player stickers in gold-quality crafts. The Souvenir AK template is the most coveted four-sticker layout in CS2 — and Gold Arabesque's busy gold work is forgiving of FT wear because the dense filigree absorbs minor abrasions against the black base.
FT context
FT preserves the central artwork at a meaningful discount from MW. For Major-souvenir collectors who want Gold Arabesque without flagship-tier MW pricing, FT is the consensus practical condition. Listings remain thin and asks have been climbing year-over-year.
