c1900 French Silver Regimental Horse Desk Seal

Seal Detail

Very ornately cast and weighty silver desk seal with stunning depictions on the handle of a regimental horse riding equipment, including feed bucket, a saddle, a crop and horseshoes, the circular carnelian matrix engraved finely with a stag and a motto reading:

 HABET ("He Has")

A most unusual and practically unique circa 1900 design of desk seal, favouring those with a equestrian bent!
