The Alpine ibex (Capra ibex), aka Steinbock or Bouquetin, is a species of wild goat whose habitat are the mountains of the European Alps. It was a joy to make this hunting trophy over the summer.
It is one of my finest pieces to date!
From a Prototype to a finished masterpiece:
This piece made from Sterling Silver was commissioned over the summer. It is handmade in my workshop near the Vienna Opera. Front and Back view.

Trophies depicting Chamois (aka Rupicapra rupicapra or Gams) in Sterling Silber. In German these trophies are known as Jagdabzeichen.

Hunting trophy can be made from 2 colours to achieve a better contrast.

Finishing the first prototype is somewhat nerve racking. Another prototype bites the dust!

Instead of making a new mould from an old cast I decided to make a completely new prototype.
Never be afraid of change. Old ways will not open new doors.
If you think it is time for a fresh start then get in touch!

We love this European tradition of Jagdabzeichen. Here the owner of a hunt can give to his guests a trophy to commemorate a particular good hunt. Let me help you design such a Jagdabzeichen. Godspeed!

Why-oh-why do some people still believe they can charge a small fortune for these items? I make these in my workshop in Vienna and they are such fun things to do. Waidmannsheil
