This antique Art Nouveau sterling silver pen holder probably represents mythical god Pan, God of the Forest, or any other number of mythical Gods:
Pan the Greek god of the woodlands
Cernunnos, Celtic God of fertility, animals & the underworld.
Herme The Hunter, of Britain.
Janus, Roman god of good beings.
Dionysus, Greek god of vine &vegetation.
 
It is believed the Horned God represents sexuality, vitality, the hunt, logic and power. But, he does not exploit his attributes nor will he let them be exploited. He is considered to be compassionate gentle, and tender in a masculine manner.
Very unique, usuable item. Great conversation piece!
