Taxidermy – Dormouse by Peter Spicer & Sons of Leamington Spa. Circa 1904

1900 - 1920
Description

A remarkably small wall dome with ebonized frame and typical water colour back drop. Possibly the smallest Spicer case ever produced. With unusually small trade label to the rear of the case, which I have only ever seen once before, dating the case to circa 1904. For more information on this famous Victorian taxidermy firm see “A Record of Spicer’s” published by myself back 2001.

22.5cm Diameter.

The nocturnal Dormouse named for their long, dormant hibernation period of six months or longer. Once common in the UK, the Hazel Dormouse has for some time been considered at risk of extinction.

-----

We are always looking to purchase the finest examples of Taxidermy especially by the likes of Peter Spicer and other great Victorian taxidermists, please contact us if you have anything of interest.
