Quiet Street Antiques of Bath has dated this piece to the 1880s.
The detail is astonishing and the way the lags move is highly realistic. There is a signature stamped into the underside, however it is hard to read. I have been unable to establish the name of the sculptor. Workmanship is of the highest order.
Dated: c.1870-1880.
Dimensions: 9 x 6cm.
Weight: 182 gr
