FAQs

Taxidermy gained immense popularity in Britain during the Victorian and Edwardian periods as a means of displaying natural history specimens and hunting prowess within domestic interiors.

Traditional mounts typically comprise cured animal pelts, glass eyes, plaster or papier-mache forms, and polished oak or mahogany wooden shields for wall hanging.

Authentic pieces often feature hand-blown glass eyes, period stitching techniques, subtle signs of age in the fur, and maker stamps or handwritten inscriptions on the wooden backing.

Vintage taxidermy can be paired with rich textiles, dark panelled walls, and brass accents to create a layered, scholarly aesthetic without overwhelming modern minimalist spaces.

Preservation requires keeping mounts out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, maintaining stable humidity levels, and gently dusting with a soft brush to avoid damaging fragile hair.
