A very interesting, decorative badge with a hunting theme, distinguished by its elaborate, openwork composition.
The badge consists of two parts connected by chains. The upper, larger element depicts a hunter standing in a forest setting, his right arm raised and a long weapon resting at his leg. He is accompanied by a hunting dog. The scene is framed by a decorative border of stylized branches.
The lower, movable element depicts a game animal surrounded by floral ornamentation. Both parts have holes for hanging or attaching the badge.
The artistic depiction of a hunter, dog, and game directly references hunting tradition and symbolism. The object's form suggests it could have served as a decorative badge, pendant, or part of a hunting outfit.
An interesting example of old phaleristics and jewelry with a hunting theme, with an attractive, multi-element form.
Metal, two-part badge, elements connected by two chains.
