Antique 'Black Forest' Carved Mountain Goat or Ibex Brooch

This is a vey detailed and interesting hand carved brooch.  This oval shaped antique brooch has a wild mountain goat with curved horn standing alert in the centre with some foliage. There are 2 groups of leaves and 2 circles  with cross cut designs around the edges.  This kind of  hand carved work was often carried out in the Black Forest area and materials from that region would be carved including wood, horn, antler, bone and later on early plastics such as bakelite.  I would estimate that this lovely antique brooch is late19th Century or very early 20th Century in date.  Because of the hand carving every antique brooch like this is unique.  The brooch is in excellent order, is approx  1.5 by 1.25 inches in size and fastens with an old fashioned c clasp.
